Once, there was a way_________ to get back homeward
Once, there was a way_________ to get back home
Sleep pretty darling, do not cry,
And I will sing a lullaby

Gold - en slumbers fill your eyes
Smiles awake you when you rise
Sleep pretty darling, do not cry,
And I will sing a lullaby

I like to strum the first verse with no pick and then use a pick for the
chorus and the rest of the song. The end of this song leads directly into
"Carry That Weight," with no break between the two songs.
