Lullaby For A Stormy Night

B             F#
Little child, be not afraid
    E           B        E
the rain pounds harshly against the glass
        G#m
like an unwanted stranger
F#
there is no danger
E
I am here tonight

B             F#
Little child, be not afraid
       E         B          E
though thunder explodes and lightning flash
  G#m
illuminates
     F#
your tear-stained face
E                 F#
I am here tonight


[Chorus]

                   B
And someday you'll know
               E
that nature is so
         G#m                      F#
the same rain that draws you near me
                    B
falls on rivers and land
               E
on forests and sand
          G#m                         F#
makes the beautiful world that you'll see
       E       B F# B
in the morning


[Verse]

B             F#
Little child, be not afraid
       E            B           E
though storm clouds mask your beloved moon
        G#m
and its candlelight beams
      F#
still keep pleasant dreams
E
I am here tonight

B             F#
Little child, be not afraid
       E          B         E
though wind makes creatures of our trees
          G#m
and their branches to hands
            F#
they're not real, understand
    E                 F#
and I am here tonight


[Chorus]

                   B
And someday you'll know
               E
that nature is so
         G#m                      F#
the same rain that draws you near me
                    B
falls on rivers and land
               E
on forests and sand
          G#m                         F#
makes the beautiful world that you'll see
       E       B G#m F# B
in the morning

E                       F#
For you know, once even I was a...


[Verse]

B                 F#
Little child, and I was afraid
      E      B       E
but a gentle someone always came
   G#m                      F#
to dry all my tears, switch sweet sleep for fears
       E                     F#
and to give a kiss goodnight


[Chorus]

              B
Well now I am grown
                     E
and these years have shown
              G#m              F#
that rain's a part of how life goes
                       B
but it's dark and it's late
                     E
so I'll hold you and wait
          G#m                F#
'til your frightened eyes do close

                       B
And I hope that you'll know
               E
that nature is so
         G#m                      F#
the same rain that draws you near me
                    B
falls on rivers and land
               E
on forests and sand
          G#m                         F#
makes the beautiful world that you'll see
       E
in the morning

B                        E
Everything's fine in the morning
    B                      G#m
the rain'll be gone in the morning
    F#                          B
but you'll still be here in the morning
