Verse: 1
Bm A G Em
I followed her down by the railroad tracks
Bm A G Em
Waited until she couldn't turn back
Bm A G Em
Her clothes in a pile and her blood in a stream
Bm A G F# Em7
Yeah a lullaby don't always turn to a dream
Verse: 2
Bm A G Em
Took both her kids and put em in the garage
Bm A G Em7 G
And I took off in her car and became a mirage
Bm A G Em
Out in the desert where the air is clean
Bm A G F#m Em
And a lullaby don't always turn to a dream
Bridge
G Em7 Em
An innocent man might take the blame
G A Gm BmA GEm
I'll shave my head, and change my name
Verse: 3
Bm A G Em
Out in the desert it's as still as death
Bm A G Em
It's as if mother nature mother nature was holding her breath
Bm A G Em
The coyotes howl and the vultures scream
Bm A G F#m Em
And a lullaby don't always turn to a dream
BmA G F#mEm
Verse: 4
Bm A G Em
I guess it started when I was a teen
Bm A G Em
And my parents will never know their little boy is such a fiend
Bm A G Em
I guess sometimes it works out, but you never know what it means
Bm A G F#m Em
Cause a lullaby don't always turn to a dream
G D Em
Naw, a lullaby don't always turn to a dream
