Lullaby For A Stormy Night Uke tab by Vienna Teng

Verse:
B             F#
Little child, be not afraid
    E           B       E
The rain pounds harshly against the glass
        G#m
like an unwanted stranger
F#
There is no danger,
E
I am here tonight
B             F#
Little child, be not afraid,
       E         B          E
though thunder explodes and lightning flash
G#m
illuminates
     F#
your tear-stained face
E                  F#
I am here tonight


Chorus:
                   B
And someday you'll know
               E
that nature is so
         G#m                      F#
the same rain that draws you near me
                    B
falls on rivers and land,
               E
on forests and sand
          G#m                         F#
makes the beautiful world that you'll see
       E          B       F#      B
in the morning



Verse:

B             E
Little child, be not afraid
       E            B         E
though storm clouds mask your beloved moon
        G#m
and its candlelight beams,
      F#
still keep pleasant dreams
E
I am here tonight
B             F#
Little child, be not afraid
       E          B         E    
though wind makes creatures of our trees
          G#m
and their branches to hands,
            F#     
they're not real, understand
    E                 F#
and I am here tonight



Chorus:
                   B
And someday you'll know
               E
that nature is so
         G#m                      F#
the same rain that draws you near me
                    B
falls on rivers and land,
               E
on forests and sand
          G#m                         F#
makes the beautiful world that you'll see
       E          B       G#m      F#      B
in the morning
E                     F#
For you know, once even I was a..



Verse:
  B                 F#
..little child, and I was afraid
      E      B       E
but a gentle someone always came
   G#m                      F#
to dry all my tears, switch sweet sleep for fears
       E                     F#
and to give a kiss goodnight



Chorus:
              B
Well now I am grown
                     E
and these years have shown
              G#m              F#
that rain's a part of how life goes
                       B 
But it's dark and it's late
                     E
so I'll hold you and wait
          G#m                F#
'til your frightened eyes do close
                       B
And I hope that you'll know
               E
that nature is so
         G#m                      F#
the same rain that draws you near me
                    B
falls on rivers and land,
               E
on forests and sand
          G#m                         F#
makes the beautiful world that you'll see
       E
in the morning


B                        E
Everything's fine in the morning
    B                      G#m
The rain'll be gone in the morning,
    F#                        B
but I'll still be here in the morning
