 As  I walked  down by the  riverside
     C        F       C        C 
 One  evening  in the  spring, 
         C          F          C          F  
 Heard a  long gone  song from  days gone  by
       C          F            C      C 
 Blown  in on the  great North  wind. 
              F               C               
 Though there  is no lonesome  corncrake's cry
    Am            F     
 Of  sorrow and delight,
         C         F             C            F    
 You can  hear the  cars and the  shouts from  bars
         C         F        C        C 
 And the  laughter  and the  fights. 
 
         F                             C              
 May the  ghosts that howled round the  house at night
       Am                  F      
 Never  keep you from your  sleep.
          C          F              C       F    
 May they  all sleep  tight down in  hell tonight
    C         F         C    C 
 Or  wherever  they may  be.

    C         F          C      F     
 As  I walked  on with a  heavy  heart
        C             F       C      C 
 Then a  stone danced  on the  tide, 
         C          F              C            F    
 And the  song went  on though the  lights were  gone
         C           F       C        C 
 And the  North wind  gently  sighed, 
        F                      C             
 And an  evening breeze coming  from the East
      Am               F    
 That  kissed the riverside.
      C         F               C        F    
 So I  pray now  child that you  sleep tonight
          C          F     C   C 
 When you  hear this  lullaby. 
 
         F                     C              
 May the  wind that blows from  haunted graves
       Am              F 
 Never  bring you misery.
         C       F             C      F    
 May the  angels  bright watch  you tonight
     C         F          C       C 
 And  keep you  while you  sleep.
