Whisky Lullabies English Version by Janet Devlin


                  Whisky Lullabies English Version


Capo:no capo
 
Chords: C, F, Am, Dm, G
 
( F can be changed to Fmaj7 )
 
(I like to use a d-d-dudududu strumming pattern for this song because it
mimics the sound of the music box in the actual song)
 
(Note: This is a very simple way to play this song. I could tab out the
entirety of the music box notes so it could be plucked if enough of you ask 
for it.)
 
[Intro:]
 
C F Am F
 
[Verse:]
 
C
When I was a child 
       F
they'd ask me where it hurt 
    Am                     F
and wipe the tears from my eyes
 
C
Sure embraces, 
       F
gentle forehead kisses 
       Am              F
making sure that I was alright
 
[Pre-Chorus:]
 
   C                    F
As I grew older and the nights grew shorter
     Am                    F
I no longer cared where it hurt
 
[Chorus:]
 
C               F
  All I hear is, Whisky Lullabies
Am                      F
  there to cradle me to sleep
C               F
  All I hear is, Whisky Lullabies
Am                      F
  there to cradle me to sleep
 
[Verse:]
 
C
Scars they heal in time 
    F
the raw wounds on my mind
     Am               F
they aren't so easily fixed
 
C
You can't mend what isn't broken
F
Kind words are rarely spoken
Am                   F
in time I will learn this
 
[Pre-Chorus:]
 
    C
But I grow older 
        F
and the nights grow shorter
Am                     F
drowning as I sink or swim
 
[Chorus:]
 
C               F
  All I hear is, Whisky Lullabies
Am                      F
  there to cradle me to sleep
C               F
  All I hear is, Whisky Lullabies
Am                      F
  there to cradle me to sleep
 
[Bridge:]
 
C                       F
Sticks and stones they break me to the bone
Am             F
Words they cut they will always hurt me
 
(Here you can do one strum each chord or continue to strum)
 
F      G            Am
Please be my saving Grace
F      G            Am
Please be my saving Grace
F      G            Am
How to answer all my prayers
F      G            Am
Please be my saving Grace
 
(One strum each chord)
 
Dm G
 
[Chorus:]
 
(Back to strumming)
 
C               F
  All I hear is, Whisky Lullabies
Am                      F
  there to cradle me to sleep
C                   F
  and all I hear is, Whisky Lullabies
Am                      F
  there to cradle me to sleep
 
[Bridge:]
 
C                       F
Sticks and stones they break me to the bone
Am             F
Words they cut they will always hurt me
C                       F
Sticks and stones they break me to the bone
Am             F
Words they cut they will always hurt me
 
[Outro:]
 
C F Am F
 
(End on C)
