[F]
The bent twig [Fm] of darkness [D] grows [C] the petals of [F] the morning
And shows to them the [D] birds singing [C] just behind [F] the dawning
Come dip into [Bb] the cloud, dream laughing
[C]
I [F]
can't keep [D] my hand on [Cm] the cloud because it's dying
[F] But I will lay [Bb] me down with [C] my arms round [F] the rainbow
And I will lay [D] me down [F] to [C]
dream
[F] [C]
[F] Oh, will [G] your magic [Ab] Christmas tree be shining [F]
gently
[C] [F]
[Fm] Climbing up these [Ab] figures, the [C] sun is tugging at my [F] shoulder
And every [Fm] step I take, I think my feet [C] are getting [F] older
I see the crystal [Bb] of dreams [C] unfolding
I
[F] can't keep [D] my eyes on [C] the moon because it's smoldering
[F] But I will lay me [Bb] down with [Fm] my arms round the [F] rainbow
And I will lay [D] me down to [F] [C] dream
[F] [C] [C] Oh, will your [N] magic Christmas tree be [G] shining [F] gently
