 C       Am       C    Am  C
Slumber, my darling, thy mother is near,

 Am       C         Am      G
Guarding thy dreams from all terror and fear,

 C       Am        C     Am   C
Sunlight has pass'd and the twilight has gone,

 Am       C       G        C
Slumber, my darling, the night's coming on.


 G         C   G   C
Sweet visions attend thy sleep,

 G     C   G    C
Fondest, dearest to me,

 G    C       G    C
While others their revels keep,

 G    D      G   G7
I will watch over thee.


 C       Am       C      Am  C
Slumber, my darling, the birds are at rest,

 Am        C       Am        G
The wandering dews by the flow'rs are caressed,

 C       Am        C      Am  C
Slumber, my darling, I'll wrap thee up warm,

   Am        C       G         C
And pray that the angels will shield thee from harm.

Slumber, my darling, till morn's blushing ray

 Am        C        Am      G
Brings to the world the glad tidings of day;

Fill the dark void with thy dreamy delight

Thy pillow shall sacred be

From all outward alarms;

Thou, thou are the world to me

 G     D     G    G7
In thine innocent charms.
