Pogues - Lullaby of London This is originally in a different key but these chords make it easy to play on the guitar. G As I walked down by the riverside D One evening in the spring D Heard a long gone song G From days gone by D Blown in on the great North wind D Though there is no lonesome corncrake's cry G Of sorrow and delight D You can hear the cars G And the shouts from bars D And the laughter and the fights
G May the ghosts that howled D Round the house at night G Never keep you from your sleep D May they all sleep tight G Down in hell tonight D Or wherever they may be D G As I walked on with a heavy heart G Then a stone danced on the tide D And the song went on G Though the lights were gone D And the North wind gently sighed D And an evening breeze coming from the East G That kissed the riverside G So I pray now child that you sleep tonight D When you hear this lullaby D May the wind that blows from haunted graves G Never bring you misery D May the angels bright G Watch you tonight D And keep you while you sleep
