When the wind blows the cradle will rock

Well Jack be nimble Jack be quick

Jack jumped over the candle stick

When the wind blows

Hi diddle diddle the cat and the fiddle

F#m
On,on her way down she met her turtle dove
      C#7  NC                                 A
Said let's go rockin' in the cradle of love

When the wind blows the cradle will rock
              D                E

And fell in the cradle of love

So rock-a-bye baby in the tree top
NC             A     F#m  A  F#m
When the wind blows
