Em         B          A
Wynken and lynken and Nod one night 
       Em              A
Sailed off in a wooden shoe 
D                                  E             A
Sailed in a river of crystal light into a sea of dew 
Em                                      A 
Now where are you going and what do you wish 
        Em                A
The old moon asked of the three 
            D                     Bm
Well, we're going out fishing for herring fish that live in the 
          A
beautiful sea 
 
Nets of GSilver and CGold have we said EWynken and Blynken andANod 
 
The old moon laughed andsang a song  
As they rocked in their wooden shoe 
And the wind that sped them all night long ruffled the waves of dew 
 
Well the little stars were the herring fish that lived in the beautiful sea 
Now cast your nets wherever you wish never afeared are we 
So sang the stars to the fisherman three:  Wynken and Blynken and Nod 
 
All night long their nets they threw to the stars and the twinkling foam 
Then down from the skies came the wooden shoe bringing the fisherman home 
 
Twas all so pretty a sight it seemed as if it could not be 
And some folks thought it was a dream they dreamed  
Of sailingthe beautiful sea 
But I shall name you the fisherman three:  Wynken, Blynken and Nod 
 
Now Wynken and Blynken are two little eyes and Nod is a little head 
And the wooden shoe that sailed the sky is a wee one's trundle bed 
So close your eyes while mother sings of the beautiful sights that be 
And you will see wonderful things as you rock on the misty sea  
where the old moon rocks the fisherman three 
Wynken and Blynken and Nod
