[[This song is my dad's favorite lullaby, because my mom sang it to him when they were dating. I don't know what key it's in originally, but I worked out suitable chords for myself in key of D. I also like to play it with a 3/4 finger-picking pattern of: p-i-m-a-m-i. I love its gentle prettiness. :) ]] (v.1) DFar (xx0232@1)away places with strange-sounding names D (xx0232@1) A7Far (x02020@1)away over the sea D (xx0232@1) GThose (320003@1)far away places with their strange-sounding names D (xx0232@1) A7 (x02020@1) DAre (xx0232@1)callin', callin' me.
