Verse 1:
B minorBm A augmentedA G+G E minorEm
I followed her down by the railroad tracks
B minorBm A augmentedA G+G E minorEm
Waited until she couldn't turn back
B minorBm A augmentedA G+G E minorEm
Her clothes in a pile and her blood in a stream

Yeah a lullaby don't always turn to a dream
Verse 2:
B minorBm A augmentedA G+G E minorEm
Took both her kids and put em in the garage
B minorBm A augmentedA G+G E7m G+G
And I took off in her car and became a mirage
B minorBm A augmentedA G+G E minorEm
Out in the desert where the air is clean
B minorBm A augmentedA G+G F# minorF#m E minorEm
And a lullaby don't always turn to a dream

Out in the desert it's as still as death
B minorBm A augmentedA G+G E minorEm

And a lullaby don't always turn to a dream

Verse 4:
B minorBm A augmentedA G+G E minorEm
I guess it started when I was a teen
B minorBm A augmentedA G+G E minorEm
And my parents will never know their little boy is such a fiend

Cause a lullaby don't always turn to a dream
G+G D MajorD E minorEm
Naw, a lullaby don't always turn to a dream
