[D]
Nail and stone it was my life, [C] and dreams [Gm] were always grown.
[G] [D] I built lovers into wives, and dreams into fine home.
[G] As simple [F#m] as it seemed to [D] me, you [Em] would not [A] see me [D] smiling.
And I would [F#m] cry, do what [Bm] you try, [G] to live [D] your life to die.
So hush a bye, don't you cry, go [Bm] to see [G] my love.
[D] Dry your eyes and dream [D] of, you're the one I love.
I did pray to be like you, [C] to be [G] part of your [D] life.
But you were lost to richer lands, your friends to further price.
[G] And somewhere [F#m] out there so [Bm] clearly, what [Em] you would [A] think in [D] love.
The difference [F#m] between us, [Bm] must have been, [G] that someone [D] gave me love.
So hush a bye, don't you cry, go [Bm] to see [G] my
[D] [E] love.
[D] Dry [G] your [D] eyes and dream of, you're [E] the one [D] I love.
That you're the [E]
one [D] I love.
