G
Go to sleep my little baby
Am
Go to sleep my little baby
Em
Your mama's gone away and your daddy's gonna stay
C
Don't leave nobody but the babe
Am
The light is fading, it's the end of the day
She's lying awake, wondering if tomorrow's gonna be her friend
G
Am
She's too young to understand but knows somethings wrong
G
Now mama has gone, and daddy's doing all that he can to recompense, oh tries his best
Am D
And out of these lonely days, she's trying to make the most
Am D
This unfamiliar place, she's trying to make it home
Am D
C
She's working hard to get the kind of love her mama gave, oh oh oh
G
(Go to sleep my little baby), go to sleep my little baby
Am
(Go to sleep my little baby), go to sleep my little baby
Em
Your mama's gone away and your daddy's gonna stay
C
Don't leave nobody but the babe
Nobody (2x)
Am
She take the pressure and she hides it away
G
Still wakes everyday, and always sets the table for an extra place, oh place
Am D
This ain't what she chose, this it what she's got
Am D
Hope that when she grows old, no one needs to pay the cost
Am D
C
She's working hard to be the kind of girl her mama was, oh oh oh
(G Am Em C)
(Go to sleep my little baby), go to sleep my little baby
(Go to sleep my little baby), go to sleep my little baby
Your mama's gone away and your daddy's gonna stay
Don't leave nobody but the babe
Nobody
Em
Mama's gone away and your daddy's gonna stay
C
Don't leave nobody but the babe
G
Nobody
Go to sleep
Am
Go to sleep
Go to sleep
Em
Go to sleep
C
Your daddy's gonna stay
Your daddy's gonna stay
Till End
