The Cradle Song Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
Sweet [G]babe, a golden cradle [D]holds [G]thee
Soft a [D]snow-white fleece fleece
enfolds thee
[G]Fairest flower all strewn before [D]thee
[G]Birds warble o'er [D]thee[G]
[D]Seoithín seo ló, seoithín seo lú la [G]ló

[Verse 2]
Oh who is this [G]a-lying here
here
Gently at the door of my heart
To and fro like clouds [D]at night
I [G]softly rock your [D]cradle[G][D][G]
[D]Seoithín seo ló, seoithín seo lú la[G][Gsus4]
[G]ló[D][G][D][G][D][G][D][G]

[Verse 3]
A yellow moon lies in the sky
Streaming, falling over the earth
Hush, a leanna, hush, [D]be still
The [G]world is silent and [D]sleep[G]ing[D][G]
[D]Seoithín seo ló, seoithín seo lú la ló
[G]

[Outro 1]
