Embrace Me, You Child from No Secrets - 1972

G
At night in bed
D G
I heard God whisper lullabyes
Gmaj7
While Daddy next door
A

Whistled whiskey tunes
G
And sometimes when I wanted
D G
They would harmonize
G7 C
There was nothing those two couldn't do

D G
Embrace me you child
C
You're a child of mine
D C G
And I'm leaving everything I am to you
D G C
Go chase the wild and night time streets sang "Daddy"
D C Bb G
And God sang "Pray the devil doesn't get to you"

G F D G
I thought together they must sing the moon away
Gmaj7 A
I thought that they must know each other well
G F
For the magic that they made
D G
When they played
G7 C
Wasn't lost between their Heaven and their Hell

D G
Embrace me you child
C
You're a child of mine
D C G
And I'm leaving everything I am to you
D G C
Go chase the wild and night time streets sang "Daddy"
D C Bb G
And God sang "Pray the devil doesn't get to you"

G
Then one night Daddy died
D
And went to Heaven
Gmaj7
And God came down to earth
A
And slipped away
G
I pretended not to know
D G
I'd been abandoned
G7 C
But no one sang the night into the day
G F D G
And later night time songs came back again
Gmaj7
But the singers don't compare
A
With those I knew
G
And I never figured out
F G
Where God and Daddy went
G7 C
But there was nothing those two couldn't do

D G
Embrace me you child
C
You're a child of mine
D C G
And I'm leaving everything I am to you
D G C
Go chase the wild and night time streets sang "Daddy"
D C Bb G
And God sang "Pray the devil doesn't get to you"
