Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Sailed  off in  wooden  shoe
  D Sailed in a river of crystal light E into a sea of A dew
  Em Now where are you going and what do you A wish
 The old Em moon asked of the A three
 Well, we're D going out fishing for Bm herring fish that live in the
 beautiful  sea
 Nets of G Silver and C Gold have we said E Wynken and Blynken and A Nod
 The old moon laughed andsang a song
 As they rocked in their wooden shoe
 And the wind that sped them all night long ruffled the waves of dew
 Well the little stars were the herring fish that lived in the beautiful sea
 Now cast your nets wherever you wish never afeared are we
 So sang the stars to the fisherman three: Wynken and Blynken and Nod
 All night long their nets they threw to the stars and the twinkling foam
 Then down from the skies came the wooden shoe bringing the fisherman home
 Twas all so pretty a sight it seemed as if it could not be
 And some folks thought it was a dream they dreamed
 Of sailingthe beautiful sea
 But I shall name you the fisherman three: Wynken, Blynken and Nod
 Now Wynken and Blynken are two little eyes and Nod is a little head
 And the wooden shoe that sailed the sky is a wee one's trundle bed
 So close your eyes while mother sings of the beautiful sights that be
 And you will see wonderful things as you rock on the misty sea
 where the old moon rocks the fisherman three
 Wynken and Blynken and Nod

Sailed  [Em] off in [A] wooden  [A] shoe
 D Sailed in a river of crystal light  E into a sea of  A dew

 Em Now where are you going and what do you  A wish
The old  Em moon asked of the  A three
Well, we're  D going out fishing for  Bm herring fish that live in the
beautiful  [A] sea

Nets of  G Silver and  C Gold have we said  E Wynken and Blynken and A Nod

The old moon laughed andsang a song
As they rocked in their wooden shoe
And the wind that sped them all night long ruffled the waves of dew

Well the little stars were the herring fish that lived in the beautiful sea
Now cast your nets wherever you wish never afeared are we
So sang the stars to the fisherman three:  Wynken and Blynken and Nod

All night long their nets they threw to the stars and the twinkling foam
Then down from the skies came the wooden shoe bringing the fisherman home

Twas all so pretty a sight it seemed as if it could not be
And some folks thought it was a dream they dreamed
Of sailingthe beautiful sea
But I shall name you the fisherman three:  Wynken, Blynken and Nod

Now Wynken and Blynken are two little eyes and Nod is a little head
And the wooden shoe that sailed the sky is a wee one's trundle bed
So close your eyes while mother sings of the beautiful sights that be
And you will see wonderful things as you rock on the misty sea
where the old moon rocks the fisherman three
Wynken and Blynken and Nod
