	        Intro: G D Am C 

G 
She left town on a 3 o'clock train, 
D 
Goin' God knows where...far away, 
         Am 
And the last words she spoke to me, 
                  C 
is 'I'll be all right.' 

G 
She grew up in a sad dark place, 
D 
The kind of path you don't retrace. 
       Am                              
Been tryin' to wake from nightmares, 
            C 
All her days. 

     G              
Goodnight, goodnight,  
     D    
goodnight, goodnight, 
       Am                          C 
Oh goodnight...and this is her lullaby. 

G 
LA sun, it warms her face, 
D 
And she don't seem so far away. 
           Am 
She sends photographs, 
              C 
Hold me tight. 

G 
and I call her on the phone again, 
D 
And ask if she'll come home, and then, 
    Am 
I won't hang up, 
                     C 
Until she says she might. 

                G              
and I sing Goodnight, goodnight,  
     D    
goodnight, goodnight, 
       Am                          C 
Oh goodnight... and this is her lullaby. 
     G              
I sing Goodnight, goodnight,  
     D    
goodnight, goodnight, 
       Am                          C 
Oh goodnight...and this is her lullaby. 

Am              C 
I don't know if I believe, 
     G                    D 
I'm everything this woman needs, 
    Am             C 
But I swear on my soul, 
     G                    D 
I'd rather die than let her go. 
      Am                C 
She's been searching from the start, 
     G                    D 
For pieces of her tattered heart. 
   G C                D 
I know...but I'm not sure... 

G 
These winter nights, she's in my prayers. 
D 
I wake to find she isn't there... 
    Am 
And every time, 
                 C 
I laugh until I cry. 

                G              
and I sing Goodnight, goodnight,  
     D    
goodnight, goodnight, 
       Am                          C 
Oh goodnight... and this is her lullaby. 
           G              
I sing Goodnight, goodnight,  
     D    
goodnight, goodnight, 
       Am                   C                   G 
Oh goodnight...and this is her...This is her lullaby... 
                D 
This is her lullaby 
                D 
This is her lullaby 
                Am 
This is her lullaby 
         C                   G 
This is her... this is her lullaby
