Prairie Lullabye

(início)

      E             A
When shadows creep across the hills,
      E                B7
and purple streaks the sky
        E            A       E      B7
when cattle bunch up closer for the night...
       E                 A
That's when you hear the whippoorwill
        E               B7
start singing sweet and high,
         E               A        B7  E
That's when you hear the prairie lullaby.
       A              E
The breezes play, the branches sway
 B7                E
somewhere a coyote cries,
A        E   A          E        B7  E
Ah ee oh loh di, it's a prairie lullaby.
      E           A
When later on the sun is gone
      E                  B7
The campfire fights the dark,
E                       A         E      B7
And a million stars are twinkling in the sky
       E               A
That's when you see a cowboy reach
E                  B7
for his old mouth harp
        E                   A        B7  E
That's when you'll hear the prairie lullaby
    A                  E
The breezes play, the branches sway
 B7                E
somewhere a coyote cries,
A        E   A           E       B7  E
Ah ee oh loh di, it's a prairie lullaby.
A        E   A           E       B7  E
Ah ee oh loh di, it's a prairie lullaby.
