• Dm

Verse 1:
 
Dm                            Bb         C 
Lay down your head, and I'll sing you a lullaby 
 Dm                   Bb         C 
Back to the years of loo-li-lai-ley 
          Dm 
And I'll sing you to sleep 
          Bb          C 
And I'll sing you to morrow 
 Dm             Bb           Am           Dm 
Bless you with love for the road that you go 


Verse 2:
 
Dm            Bb         Gm              A 
May you sail fair to the far fields of fortune 
      Dm           Bb             Gm            Am 
With diamonds and pearls at your head and your feet 
    Bb            F        Gm        Am 
And may you need never to banish misfortune 
Dm            Bb         Am            Dm 
May you find kindness in all that you meet 



           Bb        C         Am        Bb 
May there always be angels to watch over you 
    Bb             C          Dm 
To guide you each step of the way 
    Bb            C        Am            Bb 
To guard you and keep you safe from all harm 
Bb      C          Dm 
Loo-li-loo-li-lai-ley

Verse 3: 

Dm                      Bb             C 
May you bring love, and may you bring happiness 
    Dm        Bb          Gm           Am 
Be loved in return to the end of your days 
     Bb           F             Bb         Am 
Now fall off to sleep; I'm not meaning to keep you 
          Dm         Bb            Am         Dm 
I'll just sit for a while and sing loo-li-lai-ley
