[Harmonica Intro]
[Verse 1]
D
If you wake to find you're all alone
C G
Call me up on the telephone and I'll say
D
"Come on 'round, kick up your feet
C
I'll check to see if your heart still beats,
G
you can stay"
D
I heard her laugh but she sounded blue
C
I said, "You know my heart's for you, it
G
lies awake"
D
"Dreaming of its promised land
C
A gentle touch from your gentle hand", I
G
would say
[Chorus]
D C G
So hush, little darling, don't you cry
D C G
Hush, little darling, gonna make you mine

[Verse 2]
D
I know our love did rust away
C
But through that window came a better day
G
So don't close the blinds
D
'Cause you're my light, you're my emptiness
C
The pretty colors on that summer dress,
G
babe
D
You're all the things that fall from the sky
C
The sun, the rain, the moon, the light,
G
babe
D
So come on down to this earthly being
C
And I'll hold you close when you're in
G
need, babe
[Chorus] x2
