    ROCK-A BYE HEART   Steve Holy 
Intro chords  C F Am Bb G 
        C 
This world is full of highs and lows  
      G 
Wide open smiles and tears that flow 
             Bb 
And you're bound to have your share of both 
F 
that's guaranteed 
       C 
Some-times you'll fly Sometimes you'll fall 
       G 
Some-times you'll dance around it all 
    Bb                   F 
But on your knees or standing tall 
            Dm            G 
You could always count on me 

     C                     F 
So close your tire eyes Precious angel of mine 
    Am      Dm                G 
And let my love surround you in the dark 
  C                          F 
Sure as the sun that rises you'll have all you desire 
    Am         Dm            G           Am 
So rest your wishes in the cradle of my arms 
                F        G                    C   
And lay your dreams down   in my rock-a-bye heart 
 
          C 
Oh the answer to a life long pray 
           G 
There's heaven in your eyes I swear 
     Bb                              F 
One look and you can take me there That's all I need 
       C 
Your laugh is music to my ears 
     G 
You cry and I can taste the tears 
     Bb           F                 Dm               G 
and I'll forever be right here to watch you as you dream 
 
to chorus, lead, 
  C                          F 
Sure as the sun that rises you'll have all you desire 
    Am         Dm             G          Am 
So rest your wishes in the cradle of my arms 
                F        G                     C   
And lay your dreams down    in my rock-a-bye heart 
         F          C 
ooo my rock-a-bye heart
