After  Giant  by Stan Rogers

Bright

G stars

twinkle calmly and

Dm7 clouds

drift like fleece.

The

G still

of the evening bears

C pro

mise of peace.

But you

Bb know

any moment that

G still

ness will

C cease

:

The

Bb ba

by will

F rise

with the

G moon

!

’Twas the

G same

ancient curse, by which

Dm7 we

have been stung,

That our

G mo

thers wished on us

C when

we were young.

It’s the

Bb/D wailing

demand of a

G shrill

newborn

C tongue

.

The

Bb ba

by will

F rise

with the

G moon

!

Chorus:

So  Bb grab  your  F bath G robe ,  F turn  on the  C light . Young  Bb lungs  and old instincts are  C use less to  G fight . Bb Grab  your  F bath G robe !   F Ju nior will  C rise ...    Bb         G With the  G moo ... G oon  !

When

G par

ents collapse at the

Dm7 end

of the day,

They

G seek

after sleep as the

C night

slips away,

Re

Bb mem

bering feeding time’s

G not

far a

C way

.

The

Bb ba

by will

F rise

with the

G moon

!

With the

G ad

vent of Playtex and the

Dm7 nip

ples they sell,

It

G falls

upon fathers to

C ans

wer that yell.

Bb Light

the stove!  Fill the bottle, and

G warm

the milk

C well

!

The

Bb ba

by will

F rise

with the

G moon

!

(Chorus)
