Intro
MI/FA# FA#m/MI MI+7
FA#m/MI FA#m7 MI+7
A cloud of eiderdown drawns around me softening the sound
SIm/LA
sleepy time when I lie with my love my side
MI/FA#
and she is breathing low.
MI/FA#
And the candle dies.
MIm/FA#
When night comes down you lock the door
the book falls to the floor.
As darkness falls and waves roll by,
the season change, the wind is warm.
Now wakes the owl, now sleep the swan
behold the dream, the dream is gone.
MIm/FA# MIm/FA#/LA MIm/SOL MIm/FA# MIm
Green fields a cold rain is falling in a golden dawn
(Instumental)
MIm/FA# SIm/LA LAm SIm/LA
MIm/FA# MIm/FA#
E+7 F#m/E E+7 F#m/E (verse starts here)
FA#m/MI
And deep beneath the ground
FA#m7 MI+7
the early morning sounds and I go down.
SIm/LA
Sleepy time when I lie with my love by my side
MI/FA#
and she's breathing low.
SIm/LA
And I rise like a bird in the haze
MI/FA#
when the first rays touch the sky.
MI/FA#
And the night winds die.
F#m/E E+7 F#m/E E+7 Bm/A ...Fades.
