Dm 
Winking,

blinking and not one night,
Dm 
G 
sailed off in a wooden shoe.
Em 
C 
F 
Am 
Sailed on a river of crystal light
G 
D 
G 
into a sea of dew.
Dm 
Where are you going
G 
and what do you wish?
Dm 
G 
The old woman asked for three.
C 
Am 
We have come to fish for the herring fish
G 
D 
G 
that live in this beautiful sea.
Dm 
G 
Nets of silver and gold have weighed,
Dm 
A 
Sit winking, blinking, and nodding.
Dm 
The old men laughed and
G 
sang a song,
Dm 
G 
As they rocked in the wooden shoe,
C 
And the wind that sped them
Am 
all night long
D 
G 
Ruffled the waves of dew.
A 
Dm 
G 
The little stars were the herring fish
Dm 
G 
that lived in that beautiful sea
C 
Am 
Now cast your nets wherever you wish
G 
D 
G 
Never afeard are we
Dm 
G 
So cried the stars to the Fisherman
Three
Dm 
A 
Winkin', blinkin' at night
Dm 
G 
All night long their nets they threw
Dm 
G 
To the stars and the twinkling foam
C 
Then down from the skies
Am 
came the wooden shoe
D 
G 
Bringing the fishermen home
Dm 
G 
Twas all so pretty a sail it seemed
Dm 
G 
As if  it could not be
C

and some folks thought was

a dream

they dreamed of sailing that beautiful sea

G 
but I   shall name you the Fisherman
Dm 
A 
Three Winkin', Blinkin' and Nod
Dm 
Winkin' and Blinkin'
G 
are two little eyes
Dm 
and Nod is a little head
G 
C 
And the wooden shoe
Am 
that's sailed the skies
G 
D 
G 
Is a wee one's trundle bed
A 
Dm 
G 
So shut your eyes while Mother sings
Dm 
Of won derful sights that lead
G 
C 
Am 
And you shall see the beautiful things
D 
G 
As you rock in the misty sea
Dm 
Where the old shoe rock,
G 
the fisherman three
Dm 
Winkin', blinkin'
A 
and noddin'
Dm 
D 
Winkin', blinkin' and noddin'
