Big Bird's Lullaby Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
I don't [Em]believe this. Listen, [A]everybody,
I [Em]really appreciate your trying so hard
to help me fall asleep,
[D]but nothing's working.
I'm just going to take a walk
around the block.
Maybe that'll tire me [Em]out.
Huh? Huh?
[D]Hey, what's going on?
I'm up. I'm up.
Oh, little bird,
I completely forgot you were
sleeping in my nest,
and I woke you up. I'm so sorry.
Oh, that's OK, Big Bird,
but what are you doing up?
Why aren't you asleep?
Well, you see, after I [A]sang you my
[D]Mommy Bird's lullaby,
there was no one to sing it to me.
Well, that's no problem.
Here are all our friends.
Let's teach them your Mommy
Bird's lullaby,
and then they can sing it to both of us.
Wow, fantastic.
You know, for a little bird,
you get some big ideas.
Hey, how about it, everybody?
Want to learn how to put a
bird to sleep?

[Verse 2]
[D]
Sleep my baby, softly rest
[Em]Like [A]a n[D]estling i[Em]n a n[A]es[D]t.
Though you are too small to fly,
You'll [A]be [D]big bird [Em]by an[A]d by[D].
[Em]Though [A]your [D]song is [Em]still [A]a s[D]queak,
[Em]Soft [F#]your [D]feathers, [A]small [E]your [D]beak[A]
[D]Tuck your head beneath your wing
Hear [A]the [D]guardian an[Em]gels [A]sing[Bm]
[G]Cheep[D], cheep, cheep, cheep
Sleep [A]my baby, [D]go [Em]to s[A]leep.
[D]I don't believe it. I think it worked.
Shh, he's sleeping.
Hey, come on, everybody.
Hey, let's let him sleep.
Good night.
