[Verse 1]
Em D C Am
I followed her down by the railroad tracks
Em D C Am
Waited until she couldn't turn back
Em D C Am
Her clothes in a pile and her blood in a stream
Em D C B E7m
Yeah a lullaby don't always turn to a dream
[Verse 2]
Em D C Am
Took both her kids and put em in the garage
Em D C E7m C
And I took off in her car and became a mirage
Em D C Am
Out in the desert where the air is clean
Em D C Bm Am
And a lullaby don't always turn to a dream
[Bridge]
C A7m Em
An innocent man might take the blame
C D Cm Em D C Am
I'll shave my head, and change my name
[Verse 3]
Em D C Am
Out in the desert it's as still as death
Em D C Am
It's as if mother nature mother nature was holding her breath
Em D C Am
The coyotes howl and the vultures scream
Em D C Bm Am
And a lullaby don't always turn to a dream
Em D C Am

[Verse 4]
Em D C Am
I guess it started when I was a teen
Em D C Am
And my parents will never know their little boy is such a fiend
Em D C Am
I guess sometimes it works out, but you never know what it means
Em D C Bm Am
Cause a lullaby don't always turn to a dream
C G Am
Naw, a lullaby don't always turn to a dream
