Moon Cradle Loreena McKennitt
[Intro]
[C] [D] [C] [D]
[Verse 1]
When the moon cradle's rocking and [C]rocking
Where a cloud and a cloud go [D]by
Silently rocking and [C]rocking
The moon cradle's out in the [D]sky
[Verse 2]
Then comes the lad with the [C]hazel
And the folding star's in the [D]rack
"Night's a good herd," to the [C]cattle he sings
"She brings all things [D]back"
[Verse 3]
But the bondwoman down by the [C]boorie
Sings with a heart grown [D]wild
How a hundred rivers are [C]flowing
Between herself and her [D]child
[Verse 4]
"The geese, even they trudge [C]homeward
That have their wings and the [D]waste
Let your thoughts be on Night the [C]Herder
And be quiet for a [D]space"
[Verse 5]
When the moon cradle's rocking and [C]rocking
Where a cloud and a cloud go [D]by
Silently rocking and [C]rocking
The moon cradle's out in the [D]sky
[Verse 6]
The snipe, they are crying, [C]crying
Liadine, liadine, lia[D]dine
Where no track's on the bog, they are [C]flying
A lonely dream will be [D]mine
Where no track's on the bog, they are [C]flying
A lonely dream will be [D]mine
[Outro]
[C] [D] [C] [D] [C] [D]
