E9 
   Oo, little sleepy boy 

      |     
Do you know what time it is? 

        |                                |Amaj9 
Well the hour of your bedtime's long been past 

   |Am6                  E/G# 
And though I know you're fighting it 

     |F#m           B        E 
I can tell when you rub your eyes 

       F#m   |A              |E9  | 
You're fading fast, oh fading fast 


         |                             | 
Won't you run come see St. Judy's Comet 

                     | 
Roll across the skies 

   |                                |Amaj9 
And leave a spray of diamonds in its wake 

 |Am6             E/G#        | 
I long to see St. Judy's Comet 

F3m     B       E         F#m |A 
Sparkle in your eyes when you awake 

            |E9        | 
Oh, when you wake, wake 


Amaj7           | 
      Little boy 

Am6           E/G#         |E9  |  | 
    Won't you lay your body down 

Amaj7           | 
      Little boy 

Am6           E/G#            |E9  | 
    Won't you close your weary eyes 

G#+5               G#/             |C#m Cm   Bm|Bbm |A |E9 | 
     Ain't nothing flashing but the fireflies 


      | 
Well I sang it once and I sang it twice 

            |     
I'm going to sing it three times more 

            |  
I'm going to stay 'til your resistance 

      |Amaj7 
Is overcome 

         |Am6             E/G# 
'Cause if I can't sing my boy to sleep 

       |F#m        B      E     F#m    |A 
Well it makes your famous daddy look so dumb 

       |E9  | 
look so dumb 


         |                             | 
Won't you run come see St. Judy's Comet 

                     | 
Roll across the skies 

   |                                |Amaj9 
And leave a spray of diamonds in its wake 

 |Am6             E/G#        | 
I long to see St. Judy's Comet 

F3m     B       E         F#m |A 
Sparkle in your eyes when you awake 

            |E9        | 
Oh, when you wake, wake 


Amaj7                   | 
      Little boy, little boy 

Am6           E/G#         |E9  |  | 
    Won't you lay your body down 

Amaj7                   | 
      Little boy, little boy

    Won't you close your weary eyes

You're fading fast, oh fading fast
