G| | | | |


[Intro]
D Dm A F#m Bm7 E

[Verse 1]
      A           D
Stand silent for a moment
       A          Bm7   E
you'll hear a baby cry
    F#m    A       D    A
and angels helping Mary sing
    A      E    A
her gentle lullaby.

[Verse 2]
     A              D
With voices soft as music
     A           Bm7   E
that babies understand
      F#m    A      D    A
young Mary's gentle lullaby
      A      E      A
takes him to slumberland.

[Chorus]
A                 D    A
Sleep my precious baby sleep
 A                E          E7
among the cattle, goats, and sheep
     F#m    A      D      A
with just a manger to lie in
    A                    E    D      Dm7
the day will come you'll be a king.

[Interlude]
A F#m Bm7 E

[Verse 3]
    A                  D        A
The wisemen stand with gifts in hand
  A               Bm7   E
inside the stable door
    F#m    A        D    A
and listen to young Mary sing
       A      E        A
helped by the heavenly choir.

[Verse 4]
     A             D       A
They see the love upon her face
    A                 Bm7   E
and hear her heavenly song
     F#m   A      D         A
then tenderly she tucks him in
    Bm    E     A
and tenderly he yawns.

[Chorus]
A                 D    A
Sleep my precious baby sleep
 A                E          E7
among the cattle, goats, and sheep
     F#m    A      D      A
with just a manger to lie in
    A                    E    A
the day will come you'll be a king.

[Chorus]
B                 E    B
Sleep my precious baby sleep
 B                F#         F#7
among the cattle, goats, and sheep
     G#m    B      E      Em
with just a manger to lie in
    B                    F#   G#m
the day will come you'll be a king.
