This is a song my mother would sing to me when I was just a little girl…
GYou should go to sleep right Emnow,
CYou should go to Dsleep right GnowD.
GClose your eyes and rest your Emhead,
CAnd I’ll tuck youDr body into bedG.D  
GBe glad that you are young right Emnow
CBecause it just gDets worse from GhereD…
CYou will encounter disappointment
AmAt every stage of your lifGe
I promisEme you,
CMost of your dreams
Will not Amcome true
D*                                   Dsus4    D    Dsus2  D  
Though people try to tell you they  do,   oh  ba-   by
GI promise life’ll be full of awkward conEmfrontations,
CAnd you’ll get stuck in ten thousand aAmwful conversations
GYou’ll be late to an imEmportant meeting
                                    C  Am*
And someday you will get bullied and end up bleeding
GSomeone you love
Will not Emlove you back
CAnd you’ll never, never win the loAmttery
G*            D*                Em*
You will feel emotions such as anger, pain and sadness
COver and over, lAmisten to me:
GYou will probably get into at leasEmt one car accident
CYou will make foAmes;
G*             D*               Em*
You will lose close friends and relatives to cancer
CAnd other, horrible, unpAmredictable scenarios
GAnd then you will die
Em‘Cause everybody dies;
CLife is but a fleeting sAmtring of sorrows…
GBut don’t think about thEmat right now,
CJust close your eyes and think about
Am*               G  Em  
Angels and rainbows
Angels and rainbCowAms
C* G* D*
GYou should go to sleep right Emnow,
CYou should go Dto sleep right Amnow,
And remembeCrD  
        G*
Mommy loves you.
