[NOTES]
1) Strum pattern of verses follows the sung lyrics.
2) Am7 in "one eye open" is the two-finger version--same as Am but lift ring finger on "-pen" syllable.
3) On the instrumental bridge and outro: Between the Em and Am chords, pluck the two non-open notes--
   the low D and low A strings--of the Em chord before going to Am. You can actually hit any two notes
   of the Em chord, as long as the first one is higher.
   It's just an easier version of the intro, since this is for novices.
4) In the verses, damp the strings for all chords except the final G, which you strum a few times.

[INTRO]

In Em chord position: Open low E string, D string, G string, D string , open low A, D string.
then low E again. (x3)
Then use ring finger rapidly on/off low E string to finish riff. (Pluck or hammer-on.)

[Pause for emphasis/suspense.)

[VERSE 1]

Em                       Am
Say your prayers, little one

Am                Em
Don't forget, my son

Em                G
To include everyone

Em                  Am

Keep you free from sin

Till the Sandman, he comes

D   (x2)

N.C.
Gripping your pillow tight

And they aren't Snow White

Em                       Am
Dreams of war, dreams of lies

Dreams of dragon's fire

Hush, little baby; don't say a word

In your closet, in your head

Your work here is done.)
