Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Wyn[Em]ken, [G]Bl[Em]ynken[G],[D]
and [Em]Nod one night
Sailed [C]off in a [D]wooden [G]shoe[Em]
[G]Sailed on a [D]river of [Em]crystal light
[D]Into [A]a sea of [D]dew

[Verse 2]
[Em]"Where are you go[D]ing,
and [Em]what do you [D]wish?"
The [Em]old moon a[D]sked t[Em]he three
[D]"We have

[Verse 3]
[G]come [D]to fish
for the [Em]herring fish
That [C]live in this beauti[B]ful sea
[Em]Nets [B]of silver and [Em]gold have [C]we!"
Said [G]Wynken, [D]Blynken,
and [G]Nod[Em][G][Em]

[Verse 4]
[Em]The old moon laughed
and [G]sang [Em]a song
As they [G]rocked in the [D]wooden [G]shoe
[Em]And the [G]wind that [Em]sped them
[G]all [Em]night [G]long[Em]
[C]Ruffled the waves of [B]dew

[Verse 5]
The [Em]little [D]stars were the [Em]herring [D]fish
That [Em]lived in that [D]beautiful [Em]sea
[D]"Now [G]cast your [D]nets [Em]wherever you wish,
[C]never feared are [B]we"
[Em]So cried t[D]he stars to the
[Em]fishermen [C]three
[G]Wynken, [D]Blynken, and Nod
[G][Em][G][Em]

[Verse 6]
[G]All [Em]night [G]lon[Em]g their net[G]s they thr[Em]ew
To the [G]stars in the [D]twinkling [G]foam[Em]
Then [G]down from the [D]skies [Em]came
the wooden shoe
[C]Bringing the fishermen [B]home

[Verse 7]
It was [Em]all s[D]o pretty a[Em] sail [D]it seemed
As [Em]if it c[Baug]ould not be[Em][C]
And [G]some folks [Em]thought it was a
[G]dream they'd [Em]dreamed
[C]Of sailing that beautiful [B]sea
But [Em]I sh[D]all name you the
[Em]fishermen [C]three
[G]Wynken, [D]Blynken, and [G]Nod[Em][G][Em]

[Verse 8]
[Em]Wynken and Blynken are
[G]two little eye[Em]s
And [G]Nod is a [D]little [G]head
[Em]And the wood[G]en shoe [Em]that[G] sailed the [Em]skies
Is [C]a wee one's trundle-bed

[Verse 9]
[B]So So [Em]shut your eye[D]s
while [Em]mother sing[D]s
[Em]Of wonderful s[B]ights that b[Em]e
[C]And you[G] sha[Em]ll see the[G] beautiful things[Em]
As you [C]rock in the misty [B]sea
Where the [Em]old [D]shoe rocked
[Em]the fishermen [C]three
[G]Wynken, [D]Blynken, and [G]Nod[Em]
[C][D][C][D][G]
