Loreena McKennitt - Courtyard Lullaby Capo 2 [Intro] D [Verse 1]

Within the ^Am7deep night ^Dsky The stars lie ^Am7in its em^Dbrace The courtyard ^Am7still in its ^Dsleep Peace comes ^Am7over your ^Dface

[Verse 2]

"Come to ^Am7me," it ^Dsings "Hear the ^Am7pulse of the ^Dland The ocean's ^Am7rhythms ^Dpull To hold your ^Am7heart in its ^Dhand"

[Verse 3]

^AmWhen the wind blows ^Dstrong A^Ccross the cypress ^Dtrees The ^Amnightbirds cease their ^Dsong So gathers ^Cmemo^Dries

[Verse 4]

Last night you ^Am7spoke of a ^Ddream Where forests ^Am7stretched to the ^Deast And each bird ^Am7sang its ^Dsong A unicorn ^Am7joined in a ^Dfeast

[Verse 5]

And ^Amin a corner ^Dstood A ^Cpomegranate ^Dtree With ^Amwild flowers ^Dthere No mortal ^Ceye could ^Dsee

[Verse 6]

Yet still some ^Am7mystery be^Dfalls Sure as the ^Am7cock crows at ^Dmorn The world in ^Am7stillness ^Dkeeps The secret of ^Am7babes to be ^Dborn

[Verse 7]

^AmCome to me, my ^Dlove ^CHear the pulse of the ^Dland The ^Amocean's rhythms ^Dpull To hold your ^Cheart in its ^Dhand

[Verse 8]

I heard an ^Am7old voice ^Dsay "Don't go ^Am7far from the ^Dland The seasons ^Am7have their ^Dway No mortal ^Am7can under^Dstand"
