Lullaby For The Dead Song Lyrics And Guitar Chords, (The Chieftains with Moya Brennan) Original version by the Chieftains with Moya Brennan in G# major with a capo on the 1st fret 

Intro: Instrumental verse + chorus

Like the (G)sun, quenched (D7)its first (C)mor(G)ning
The (C)moon lost (D7)to the (D)sea,
Like the (G)chill, lost un(D7)to the (C)mor(G)ning,
So (C)you my (D)love are (D7)lost to (G)me!


I can (G)hear now the (D7)pipers (C)cal(G)ling
On (C)that far (D7)distant (D)shore;
And my (G)tears now like (D7)leaves are (C)fall(G)ing
And (C)I will (D)see your (D7)face no (G)more!


Chorus
You are (C)sleeping, (D)you are (G)sleeping,
Oh no sleep or peace can (D7)comfort (D)me;
I am (C)weeping, (D7)oh I am (C)wee(G)ping,
Till (C)I will (D)sleep and (D7)sleep with (G)thee.

Bridge: Instrumental verse
