[Verse]
E C#m A E
Come let's be gentle, be soft in my arms
B7 F#m A C#m
There's moonstorms been brewing and grain in the barns
A E B7 C#m
Your mother is sleeping, I'll play my guitar
E C#m A E
The twilight is keeping us close to the stars
E C#m A E
Here's where the stories live, here with the peace
B7 F#m A C#m
Oh the kindly ol' night wrapped warm in her fleece
A E B7 C#m
Oh dream up a hot day, oh dream and be full
E C#m A E
Of Orion, his bow, the Plough and the Bull
[Chorus]
E
Oh, my darling
A C#m
Oh, my darling
A E
Oh, my darling
A (C#m) F#m
Oh, my darling
E
Oh, my darling
A C#m
Oh, my darling
A E
Oh, my darling
A (C#m) B7
Oh, my darling
[Verse]
E C#m A E
Go trust in their strength for these are your friends
B7 F#m A C#m
And pledge in them now for their love knows no end
A E B7 C#m
The bull looks a meanie but he's on your side
E C#m A E
And he pulls the plough which comes and divides
E C#m A E
Put space in the heavens, Einstein's idea
B7 F#m A C#m
And he's your friend too, so nothing to fear
A E B7 C#m
Orion'll help there, his darts find the dark
E C#m A E
And all you need do is watch for his mark
[Chorus]
E
Oh, my darling
A C#m
Oh, my darling
A E
Oh, my darling
A (C#m) F#m
Oh, my darling
E
Oh, my darling
A C#m
Oh, my darling
A E
Oh, my darling
A (C#m) B7
Oh, my darling
[Verse]
E C#m A E
The suns and the moons and the galaxies far
B7 F#m A C#m
Were cast from his bow before they were stars
A E B7 C#m
Oh and the gap in-between them is nothing to us
E C#m A E
Our eyes cut the distance as loving eyes must
E C#m A E
From me unto you son from dust unto dust
[Chorus]
E
Oh, my darling
A C#m
Oh, my darling
A E
Oh, my darling
A (C#m) F#m
Oh, my darling
E
Oh, my darling
A C#m
Oh, my darling
A E
Oh, my darling
A (C#m) B7
Oh, my darling
