Lullaby Chords & Lyrics - Misc Television - Penny Dreadful

[INTRO]

Bbm x3

When [Bbm]I was young
And [Bbm]scared of the Lord
My [Ebm]mother would sing me a [Bbm]song
A [Bbm]tune that I keep in a sacred place
Cause I [Ebm]know that my life won't be [Bbm]long
It [Gm]tells of the place where you [Db]go
When your [Ebm]time here on earth is t[Bbm]hrough
A b[Gb]eautiful place we call hea[Db]ven

Is it true Fm
Please God I pray that it's true [Bbm]
'Cause [Bbm]once this land was heaven on earth
[Ebm]Green hills were all you could [Bbm]see
But [Bbm]now it's soot and steel and brick
So it [Ebm]looks more like hell to [Bbm]me
And [Gb]each day brings more and more suf[Db]fering
And [Ebm]each night is silence and [Bbm]fear

And I [Gb]wake to the sound of your [Db]voice
But you're not h[Fm]ere
Why aren't you he[Bbm]re?
So [Bbm]now I lay me down to sleep
[Ebm]I pray the lord
My [Bbm]soul to keep
Please [Bbm]let me die before I wake
So the [Ebm]Lord my soul, can [Bbm]take
Then [Gb]maybe I'll finally f[Db]ind you
'[Ebm]Midst the beauty of par[Bbm]adise
And you'll s[Gb]ing not of dying
But [Db]living
Wouldn't that be nic[Fm]e?
Wouldn't that be ni[Bbm]ce?
