Intro: G D Am C

G
She left town on a 3 o'clock train,
D
Goin' God knows where...far away,
         Am
And the last words she spoke to me,
                  C
is "I'll be all right."

G
She grew up in a sad dark place,
D
The kind of path you don't retrace.
       Am                             
Been tryin' to wake from nightmares,
            C
All her days.

     G             
Goodnight, goodnight, 
     D   
goodnight, goodnight,
       Am                          C
Oh goodnight...and this is her lullaby.

G
A  sun, it warms her face,
D
And she don't seem so far away.
           Am
She sends photographs,
              C
Hold me tight.

G
and I call her on the phone again,
D
And ask if she'll come home, and then,
    Am
I won't hang up,
                     C
Until she says she might.

                G             
and I sing Goodnight, goodnight, 
     D   
goodnight, goodnight,
       Am                          C
Oh goodnight... and this is her lullaby.
     G             
I sing Goodnight, goodnight, 
     D   
goodnight, goodnight,
       Am                          C
Oh goodnight...and this is her lullaby.

Am              C
I don't know if I believe,
     G                    D
I'm everything this woman needs,
    Am             C
But I swear on my soul,
     G                    D
I'd rather die than let her go.
      Am                C
She's been searching from the start,
     G                    D
For pieces of her tattered heart.
   G C                D
I know...but I'm not sure...

G
These winter nights, she's in my prayers.
D
I wake to find she isn't there...
    Am
And every time,
                 C
I laugh until I cry.

                G             
and I sing Goodnight, goodnight, 
     D   
goodnight, goodnight,
       Am                          C
Oh goodnight... and this is her lullaby.
           G             
I sing Goodnight, goodnight, 
     D   
goodnight, goodnight,
       Am                   C                   G
Oh goodnight...and this is her...This is her lullaby...
                D
This is her lullaby
                D
This is her lullaby
                Am
This is her lullaby
         C                   G
This is her... this is her lullaby
