Here is a new song.

[david union]

The tune is not TTO but honestly the tune I made is not fancy.




No monsters here (a Lullaby) (c) 2022 David Union
6-string key of key capo 2.

Knock Knock Knocking on my door, needs inviting in Dm
{He looks} a little gaunt and pale, perhaps a little thin B, C
Though sky is dark with clouds and rain the storm is very near Dm
Why should I by looks alone of this stranger fear? Am Am G Em

Nothing in the dark to fear, it's all just like it seems D D, G A D
No monsters neath the bed, nor behind the closet door Bm Bm, A A
Close your eyes sleep, and dream your night time dreams D D G A G
Tomorrow you'll find peace, and never worry any more. A A D D
inst: Bm F#m (slide to) Em, A

A dragging sound I hear on the walkway just outside Dm
Their clothes are awefully ragged, smell a little putrified B, C
Though recent graves did show some signs of dirt piled very near Dm
That's no good cause of just some few dishelved men to fear? Am Am G Em

Nothing in the dark to fear, it's all just like it seems D D, G A D
No monsters neath the bed, nor behind the closet door Bm Bm, A A
Close your eyes sleep, and dream your night time dreams D D G A G
Tomorrow you'll find peace, and never worry any more. A A D D
inst: Bm F#m (slide to) Em, A

A howl in the moonlit night, dogs surely they must be Dm
Perhaps an orange fox or scrawny coyote B, C
So a growl or scratch on my front door is something I might hear Dm
I'll go and get some buscuits for those friendly canines near Am Am G Em

bridge
Every shadow in the light is a monsters thus revealed G G C C/Am
Every sound heard in the night can make them seem more real ... Em Em G D
Any thing that doesn't fit the world we have inside G G Bm Am
we spite and hate, we fight and kill and then feel justified C/C Em/Em, G Am
[feel we're justified]

Nothing in the dark to fear, it's all just like it seems D D, G A D
No monsters neath the bed, nor behind the closet door Bm Bm, A A
Close your eyes sleep, and dream your night time dreams D D G A G
Tomorrow you'll find peace, and never worry any more. A A D D
inst: Bm F#m (slide to) Em, A

I hear so many footsteps running in the night Dm
Pickup trucks and gas cans, White hoods, guns, torchlight B, C
Burning crosses on the lawn, why should I even dare Dm
When it's my turn will there be, anyone left to care Am Am G Em

Nothing in the dark to fear, it's all just like it seems D D, G A D
No monsters neath the bed, nor behind the closet door Bm Bm, A A
Close your eyes sleep, and dream your night time dreams D D G A G
Tomorrow you'll find peace, and never worry any more. A A D D
inst: Bm F#m (slide to) Em, A
