Dm Eb
Hush, my little one
Dm Eb
You must be exhausted
Dm Eb
Sleep, my little Kovu
Dm Eb
Let your dreams take wing
Dm A/C# Dm/C Bm7(5-)
One day when you're big and strong
Gm A7 Dm
You will be a king
Good night, my little prince
Tomorrow, your training intensifies
( Eb Bb A Dm )
Dm A/C#
I've been exiled, persecuted
Dm/C G
Left alone with no defense
G A Dm
When I think of what that brute did
Bb A Dm
I get a little tense
Gm F#+
But I dream a dream so pretty
Bb/F C
That I don't feel so depressed
Am7 Dm
'Cause it soothes my inner kitty
Bb A Dm
And it helps me get some rest
D Eb
The sound of Simba's dying gasp
D Eb
His daughter squealing in my grasp
D A Dm Bb
His lionesses' mournful cry
Gm A Dm
That's my lullaby
Eb
Now the past I've tried forgetting
Ebm Ab
And my foes I could forgive
Bbm Ebm
Trouble is, I know it's petty
B Bbm Ebm
But I hate to let them live
Abm G
So you found yourself somebody
B/F# C#
Who'd chase Simba up a tree
Bbm Ebm
Oh, the battle may be bloody
Abm Bbm Ebm
But that kind of works for me
Eb E
The melody of angry growls
Eb E
A counterpoint of painful howls
Eb Bb Eb B
A symphony of death, oh my
Abm Bb Ebm
That's my lullaby
Ab B
Scar is gone but Zira's still around
Ebm
To love this little lad
F# G# B
Till he learns to be a killer
C# B Bb7
With a lust for being bad
( Eb E )
Eb B
Sleep, ya little termite
Ebm Em
I mean, precious little thing
Ebm Bb/D Ebm/C# Abm
One day when you're big and strong
Abm Bb Ebm
You will be a king
E B E
The pounding of the drums of war
E B Em
The thrill of Kovu's mighty roar
Bm
The joy of vengeance
Ebm A
Testify
Am Bm
I can hear the cheering
C Em
Kovu, what a guy
Am G
Payback time is nearing
C
And then our flag will fly
Em Bm
Against a blood-red sky
Em Am B Em
Oooh, that's my lullaby
