The moon cradles rocking [C] and rocking
Where a cloud and a [D] cloud go by
Silently rocking [Am] and [C] rocking
The moon cradles out in [D] the sky
[A] Then comes the land
There's [C] rambling stars in the
[Dm] sky
[A] [D] Night's a good hurt to the cattle he sings
[C] She brings all [D] things back
[A] The [D]
bond woman down [A] by the borie
[C] Sings with a heart grown
[D]
How a hundred [A] rivers are flowing
[C] Between herself [D] and her child
The geese even they
[A] Trudge on the wings and the ways
[D] Let your thoughts be on light [Am] the hurting
[D] And be quiet for a day
The moon cradles rocking
Where a cloud and a cloud go by
Silently rocking and rocking
The moon cradles out in the sky
Snipe the crying crying
Near dying near dying near dying
Where no [D] tracks come above they are [Am] flying
A [D] lonely dream will be mine
Where no tracks come above
A lonely dream will be mine
[Am] [D]
