| Sing sing a song to me | B |
| Sing me to sleep | C |
| Some legend low and long | D |
| Slow as the summer song | D |
| Of the dull Deep | C |

| Some legend long and low | E |
| Whose equal ebb and flow | E |
| To and fro creep | C |
| On the dim marge of gray | F |
| Tween the soul s night and day | F |
| Washing awake away | F |
| Into asleep | C |

| Some legend low and long | D |
| Never so weak or strong | D |
| As to let go | E |
| While it can hold this heart | A |
| Withouten sigh or smart | A |
| Or as to hold this heart | A |
| When it sighs No | E |

| Some long low swaying song | D |
| As the sway d shadow long | D |

| Sing up and down to me | B |
| Like a dream boat at sea | B |
| So and still so | E |
| Float through the then and when | H |
| Rising from when to then | H |
| Sinking from then to when | H |
| While the waves go | E |
| - | |
| Low and high high and low | E |
| Now and then then and now | I |
| Mow now | I |
| And when the now is then and when the then is now | I |
| And when the low is high and when the high is low | E |
| Low low | E |
| Let me float let the boat | A |
| Go go | E |
| Let me glide let me slide | A |
| Slow slow | E |
| Gliding boat sliding boat | A |
| Slow slow | E |
| Glide away slide away | F |
| So so | E |
