Bedtime For Toys chords by Stevie Wonder

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:
C                       G       C
Close your eyes, beddy bye tin soldier
C                     G
Mommy says that it's time for sleep
F       Em    Am    E        Am
If my folks were wiser and older
Am            D       Am         G
They'd know kids and toys don't need sleep

Verse 2:
C                    G      C
Don't be bad little cotton dolly
C              G                  C
See how nice Mickey Mouse sleeps now?
F    F#m        C     Am       Dm  D    Dm     E
Even my brass drummer boy has stopped all his noise
A   Dm              G               C
    Cause he knows it's past bedtime for toys

Speaking:
C              G                                       C
Ya know, every Christmas Santa Claus goes all over the world with his reindeer
C                          C                           C
Sled, and a big bag of toys and he'll come to your house this year too
               F            Dm  Em                    Am                        E       Am
But sometimes, just sometimes, he doesn't have enough time to see every little boy and girl

Because the world is so big
Dm                         D                Am   Dm       D                G
So maybe we should sing a song for all the children that Santa didn't visit

Verse 3:
C                       G         C
Bless the child who has no tin soldier
C                       G       C
No brass drummer boy to put to bed
F   Em  A       Am  E         Am
He will still grow wiser and older
        D         Am      G
Loving one small rag doll instead

Verse 4:
C             G        C
He won't have a cotton dolly
C            G                 C
Mickey Mouse won't come to his house
F         F#m      C           Am   Dm              E
Hold that rag doll to your heart,    nothing can destroy
A       Dm       Am         G      Dm    G    C
     The beauty one child finds in one small toy
