Lullaby For A Stormy Night chords by Vienna Teng

Tuning: Standard EBGDAE

Difficulty: Novice


Verse:

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       E
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 I'll still be here in the morning




THE END!
