Frog's Lullaby
View chords used in this chart
Bb Cm
At night, when the lake, is a mirror
Dm Cm
And the moon rides the waves to the shore
D7 Gm
A single soul sets his voice singing
Cm F
Content to be slightly forlorn
Bb Cm
A song rises over the lilies
Dm Cm
Sweeps high to clear over the reeds
D7 Gm
And over the bulrushes' swaying
Cm F
To pluck at a pair of heartstrings
F Bb
Two voices now they are singing
A7 Dm
Then ten as the melody soars
G# Gm Cm
Round the shimmering pond, all are joining in song
Cm Fm
As it carries their reverie on
Bb Cm
Over the treetops and mountains
Dm Cm
Over the blackened ravines
D7 Gm
Then softly it falls by a house near a stream
Cm F
And over the garden wall
Bb
To thee
