[Intro]
C G Am F
C G Am F
 
[Verse 1]
C                 G                    Am
 You were loved before you had arrived
                   F                    C
And every day that love just multiplies
                G                    Am
Daddy made your bed and your lullaby
                   F                 C
And Mumma made the mobile in the sky
           G           Am
And loving you is easy
              F             C
But life will not always be
              G                  Am
Fall into the world of your song
F
Whatever you feel can never be wrong
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm      F    C
  Come along for the ride
                            G              Dm
And in the shake of a lamb's tail, we'll go
         F             G
Yeah, be still now and close your eyes
 
 
[Chorus]
    C     G
And dream
                     Am      F
Hanging out with the sandman
            C               G
You look so sweet, my child
                     Am      F
Hanging out with the sandman
                   C                       G
And though there's rain outside, you'll bе warm and dry
    Am                              F
The thunder and the lightning won't hurt you now
         C              G
So go to sleep, my lovе
                     Am      F
Hanging out with the sandman

C G Am F
C G Am F
 
 
[Verse 2]
C                 G                   Am
Chocolate-covered roof and candy cars
              F                      C
Rainbow sugar river we can sail upon
            G                      Am
Marshmallow books and strawberries
        F                 C
Snowmen made of ice cream
         G                        Am
Over the flower fields, we'll fly
                F               C
We'll count the fish in the sky
              G                    Am
Honeybees and birds sing your song
F
Whatever you feel can never be wrong
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm      F    C
  Come along for the ride
                            G              Dm
And in the shake of a lamb's tail, we'll go
         F             G
Yeah, be still now and close your eyes
 
 
[Chorus]
    C     G
And dream
                     Am      F
Hanging out with the sandman
            C               G
You look so sweet, my child
                     Am      F
Hanging out with the sandman
                   C                       G
And though there's rain outside, you'll bе warm and dry
    Am                              F
The thunder and the lightning won't hurt you now
         C              G
So go to sleep, my lovе
                     Am      F
Hanging out with the sandman
