Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Go to sleep, sweet child

Push aside your cares

Calm your beating heart

Ease your furrowed brow

O God please stay here

The night is windy and dark

God, sit by my side

God, stay through the night

Bring her please

Please bring her back

I can't but shut my eyes

Can't but quicken my pulse

Sweat beads on my neck

Tears well in my eyes

Bring her please

Please bring her back

She began my heart a-beating

She began my mind a-lovin'

She starts my hands a-feelin'

She's as much of me as I am

Bring her back

O please bring her back
