Verse 1
(G major) At night I heard God whisper lullabies
While Daddy next door whistled whisky (A major) tunes
(G major) And sometimes when I wanted,
they would harmonize
There was nothing those
two couldn't do (C major)
Verse 2
Embrace (D major) me you (G major) child,
you're a (C major) child of mine
And I'm (D major) leaving everything (C major) I am to you (G major)
(D major) Go chase the (G major) wild and (C major)
nightime streets sang Daddy
And (D major) God sang,
(C major) Pray the (B flat major) devil doesn't get to (G major) you

Verse 3
I thought (G major) together (F major) they
must sing (G major) the moon away
I thought that they must know
each other well (A major) (G major)
For the magic that they (F major) made,
when (G major) they played
Wasn't lost between their Heaven and their (C major) (D major) (G major) (C major)
(D major) Hell (C major)

Verse 4
Then one night Daddy died (G major)
and went to Heaven
And God came down to earth
and slipped away (A major) (G major)
I pretended not to notice
I'd been abandoned
But no-one sang sang
the night into the day (C major)
(G major) And later night time (F major) songs came
(G major) back again
But the singers don't compare
with those I knew (A major) (G major)
And I never figured out where
God and Daddy went
But there was nothing those two couldn't do (C major) (D major)
