(Am)Shadows (Dm)slowly (Am)creeping
(Am)Down the (Dm)prairie (Am)trail
(Am)Every(Dm)thing is (Am)sleeping
(C)All but the (Ab)nightin(G)gale.

(Am)Moon will (Dm)soon be (Am)climbing
(AmIn the (Dm)purple (Am)sky
(Am)Night (Dm)winds are a (Am)humming
(E7)This (E7)tender lulla(Am)by (G7)

Cares of the (C)day have fled
My little (Dm)sleepy(Fm)head
(Fm)Stars are (G7)in the (C)sky G7
Time that the (C)prayers were said
My little (Dm)sleepy(Fm)head
To a (C)prairie (G7)lulla(C)by

Saddle up your pony
The sandman's here
To guide you down
The trail of dreams
Tumble in bed, my baby
My little sleepyhead
To a prairie lullaby.
