Tim Minchin - Lullaby
D5 A5
Sleep little baby, sleep now my love
G5
The milky ways shining high up above.
G5 G/f# G5 D5
When you grow up you will learn all that stuff
A5
But for now close your eyes
Aaug5
Close your eyes
D5 A5
Sleep little baby try not to squawk.
G5
Tomorrow and tomorrow youll learn how to walk
G5 G/f# G5 D5
To love and laugh make toast and talk
A5
But for now beddie byes
G5 G5
Your blankets hand knitted with pure angora wool
D5
Your nappy is dry and your tummy is full
A5
Of enough antihistamine to chill out a bull
G5 G/f# G5 D5 D5
Yet still all this gringe - ing
D5 D5 G5 G5
What more could you want for? I just can not guess
D5
You constantly complain to me you should feel blessed
A5
There are children in Africa starving to death
G5 G/f# G5 D5 D5
And you dont hear them whinge - ing
D5 D5 D5 D5 D5
What more can I do to put a stop to
A5 D5
This mind numbing noise you are making?
F#5 B5
Where is the line between patting and hitting?
E5 A5
When is rocking rocking and when is it shaking?
G5 G5
I dont know what else I can do to try and hush you
D5
My heart says I love you but my brains thinking fuck you
A5
And hoping a child trafficker will abduct you
G5 A5 A5 A5 D5
At least then Id get a few hours in bed
G5 G5
Ive shushed and Ive cooed and Ive even tried to sing
D5
Ob-La-Di Ob-La-Da in the exact voice of Ringo
A5
Now all I have left is to hope, that a dingo
G5 A5 D5
Will sneak in and rip off your fat bitching head
[Break]
D5 - A5 - D(quick) - F#5 - B5 - E5 - A5
D5 A5
Oh hush little baby, dont say a word
G5
Papas gonna buy you a mocking bird
D5
In the hope youll get Avian Flu
A5 D5
The nice folk in A and E will take care of you
[Break]
D5 - A5 - D(quick) F#5 - B5 - E5 - A5
D5 - A5 - D(quick) F#5 - B5 - E5 - A5
D5
Thats it close your eyes shhh not a sound
A5 D5
I can barely see your tiny belly moving up and down
F#5 B5
One thing they dont mention in the parenting book
E5 A5 D5
Your love for them grows the closer to death they look
