This song was in chitty chitty bang bang and was sang to the kids as a lullaby. If only 
would drop off so easy eh!
Where was I oh yes I sorted this out from the version that David Gilmour did in a live show.
If you can't manage the barre chords here is a table to replace them. I think it sounds 
with the ones I have put in though.
actual   replace with
     Bm*  Am  
    Bm7*  Am7  
     F#*  E  
    F#m*  Em  
      G*  F  
Enjoy
