Wynken Blynken And Nod

Donovan

Text File

Dm G Am G Wynken, Blynken, and Nod one night, sailed off in a wooden shoe, C Am Dm G They sailed down a river of crystal light into a sea of dew. Dm G Am G "Now where are you going and what do you wish?" the old moon asked the three. C Am Dm G "We're going out fishing for the herring fish that live in the beautiful sea, F G Dm G And such silver and gold have we," said Wynken, Blynken, and Nod. Dm G Am G So the old moon laughed and sang a song as they rocked in their wooden shoe, C Am Dm G And the breeze that sped them all night long ruffled the waves of dew. Dm G Am G Now the stars in the sky were the herring fish that live in the beautiful sea C Am Dm G Come cast your nets wherever you wish, never a-feared are we. F G Dm G So sang the stars to the fishermen three, Wynken, Blynken, and Nod. Dm G Am G So all night long their nets they threw to the stars in the twinklin' foam C Am Dm G Then down from the sky came the wooden shoe a-bringin' the fishermen home. Dm G Am G 'Twas all so beautiful a sight it seemed as if it could not be. C Am Dm G And some folks thought it was a dream they dreamed while sailin' the beautiful sea F G Dm G But I shall name you the fishermen three, Wynken, Blynken, and Nod. Dm G Am G Now Wynken and Blynken are two little eyes and Nod is a little head. C Am Dm G And the breeze that sped them all night long is a wee one's trundle bed. Dm G Am G So close your eyes as mother sings of the beautiful sights that be, C Am Dm G And you shall see such wondrous things as you rock in your misty sea. F G Dm G So sang the stars to the fishermen three, Wynken, Blynken, and Nod.
