Soft Black Stars chords
F Am  G
FLittle Amchildren Gsnuggle,
Funder Gsoft black Amstars
FAnd if you Amlook inGto their eyes,
Fsoft Gblack Amstars
CDeliver them from the Ambook,
and the Fletter and the Gword
And Flet them Amread the Gsilence,
Fbathed in Gsoft black Amstars
FLet them Amtrace the Graindrops,
Funder Gsoft black Amstars
FLet them Amfollow Gwhispers,
Fand scare aGway the Amnight
CLet them kiss the feather Ambreath,
of Fsoft black Gstars
FAnd let them Amride their Ghorses,
Flicked by the Gwind and the Amsnow
And Ftip-toe inAmto Gtwilight,
Fwhere we Gall one day will Amgo
CaFressed with AmtenderGness,
Fand with no Gfear at Amall
Their Cfaces shining river Amgold,
washed by Fsoft black Gstars
FAnd angels' wings shall Amsoothe their Gcares,
Fand all the Gbirds shall sing at Amdawn,
FblessAmed and Gwet with joy
CYou and I will Ammeet one day,
under the Fnight Gsky,
Flit by Gsoft black Amstars.

Soft Black Stars chords

F Am G

Little children snuggle,

F G Am

under soft black stars

F Am G

And if you look into their eyes,

F G Am

soft black stars

C Am

Deliver them from the book,

F G

and the letter and the word

F Am G

And let them read the silence,

F G Am

bathed in soft black stars

F Am G

Let them trace the raindrops,

F G Am

under soft black stars

F Am G

Let them follow whispers,

F G Am

and scare away the night

C Am

Let them kiss the feather breath,

F G

of soft black stars

F Am G

And let them ride their horses,

F G Am

licked by the wind and the snow

F Am G

And tip-toe into twilight,

F G Am

where we all one day will go

F Am G

Caressed with tenderness,

F G Am

and with no fear at all

C Am

Their faces shining river gold,

F G

washed by soft black stars

F Am G

And angels' wings shall soothe their cares,

F G Am

and all the birds shall sing at dawn,

F Am G

blessed and wet with joy

C Am

You and I will meet one day,

F G

under the night sky,

F G Am

lit by soft black stars.
