_ [C] _ _ Sleep on child, it [F] is not [C] quite day
For the moon is still [F] to _ set
[C] _ _ Oh, the lark she will cry and bring down _
_ _ [F] to wed
[D] _ _ _
_ _ _ [C] But the lark has [F]
not [C] risen yet
_ [D] _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Sleep _ _ _ on child, [F] while the birds rest [C] on
The cow she sleeps in her [F] stall _
_ [Am] All the meadows stand [C] grey
In the still _ down wind _ _
_ _ _ _ _ And _ _ _ waits for [F] the lark to [C] call _ _ _
And waits for [D] the lark
[C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ [C] Sleep _ on child, while the [Am] fields [G] are still
[C] They wait for your _ [F] father's _ [Am] house _ _
But [E] he will [C] not go, and the sun will not [G] shine
[Am] And the cock will [C] not crow
_ _ [D] Till the lark cries over
_ Till _ [C] _ _ _ the lark _ cries over the lamb _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ [C] Sleep _ on child, [F] and heed [C] no sound
For your father may rise [F] in the dark _ _
_ With his [Am] boots in his [C] hand
Go _ [D] drowsily [Bm] down [C]
[F] by the doorway [C] to _ [G] start _
_ [C] _ _ _ Waiting [F] for [C] the lark _ _ _ _
_ Waiting [F] for the [C]
lark _ _ _ _ _ _ _
