Verse 1 chords: [play intro tab over chords]
G
Isn't a lovely night, and so alive with fireflies
Providing us their holy light
G
And here we made a bed of boughs and thistle down
That we had found to lay upon the dewy ground
Chorus Chords:
D D7 Em A G
And isn't it a lovely way we got in from our play, isn't it babe?
A G
A sweet little baby
Verse 2: (use verse 1 chords)
And wasn't it a lovely breeze that swept the leaves of arbor eaves
And bent a brush o'er blushing knees
And here we died our little deaths and we were left to catch our breath
So swiftly lifting from our chests
Chorus Chords:
And isn't a lovely way we got in from our play isn't it babe?
A sweet little baby

That's basically it, really simple but great song. Enjoy and leave comments if I
messed something up
Add the basenote variations on the first chord!
