G Am
Most of the best music I'll ever play, comes out of being late at night
D Am D G
When I'm singing the children to sleep on my plane, trying to get myself right
G Am
The music that I do in my little Django's room, music that just rolls off the heart
D Am D G
Where it's free and it's easy, made up to soothe him and always feels like a love song
And the music that I play makes him feel warm and safe
So watch him drift off on his way
Now I hope the music that I play while he's dreaming
Stays with him, all the rest of his days
C C/B Am Am/G D G
Cause you got to have something, that makes us believe that the world that we live in is right
C C/B Am Am/G D
Watching the future asleep with the baby, could brighten my outlook,
C D G
And make me play all through the night
Say a man in his time, affects all mankind, if he does what he sees must be done
Though I humbly ask for all your age little man, make a world that is safe for my son
Cause we've got to have something, that makes us believe that the world that we live in is right
Watching the future asleep with the children, brightens your outlook,
And makes you play all through the night
Chorus
