JOHN O'DREAMS BILL CADDICK
G C
When midnight comes the people homeward tread
G C G
seek now your blankets and your feather beds
G D
home is the rover
C Em
his journey's over
G Em C D
yield up the darkness to old John O' Dreams
G Em C D G
yield up the darkness to old John O' Dreams
Across the hills the sun it has gone astray
tomorrows cares are many dreams away
the stars are flying
your candle's dying
yield up the darkness to old John O' Dreams
yield up the darkness to old John O' Dreams
Both man and master in the night they're one
all things are equal when the day is done
the prince the plowman
the slave the freeman
all find their comfort in old John O' Dreams
all find their comfort in old John O' Dreams
When sleep it comes and dreams come running clear
the hawks of morning can not reach you here
sleep is a river
flows down forever
and for your boatman choose old John O' Dreams
and for your boatman choose old John O' Dreams
Repeat First Verse
