G#m


[Verse]

I will dress your eyelids

With dimes upon your eyes

Lay you close to water

Green your grave will rise


[Chorus]

F#
Go to sleep little ugly
G#m
Go to sleep you little fool
F#
Forty-winking in the belfry
E                   F#
You'll not feel the drowning
E                   F#      G G#m
You'll not feel the drowning


[Verse 2]

Forget you once had sweethearts

They've forgotten you

Think you not on parents

They've forgotten too


[Chorus 2]

F#
Go to sleep now little ugly
G#m
Go to sleep now you little fool
F#
Forty-winking in the belfry
E                   F#
You'll not feel the drowning
E                   F#     G G#m
You'll not feel the drowning


[Interlude]

G#m


[Chorus 3]

F#
Go to sleep now little ugly
G#m
Go to sleep now you little fool
F#
Forty-winking in the belfry
E                   F#
You'll not feel the drowning
E                   F#     G G#m
You'll not feel the drowning


[Verse 3]

Hear you now the captain

Heed his sorrowed cry

"Weight upon your eyelids
                              B
As dimes laid on your eyes"
