    Dsus2           Cadd9 
The midnight cat is in his sack, 
G/B                  Bb 
On the bridge of the ravens, 
Dsus2                  C 
  Children's shoes are running back, 
G/B                           Bb 
 Down the street of old men's wailings. 
 

 
Dsus2            Cadd9 
My love dreams beside me, 
G/B           Bb 
 My hopes are pinned, 
       Dsus2       Cadd9 
To the night witch ridin', 
G/B                Bb 
 On the peppermint wind. 
 

Interlude 
Dsus2  Cadd9  G/B  Bb 


 
Dsus2                 Cadd9  Csus4 C 
Comes a whisper at my window, 
G/B                 Bb 
Of the lemon tree's sighin', 
Dsus2                     C 
Through the sparkly black night, 
G/B                  Bb 
Comes a sparrow high flyin'. 
 

 
Dsus2            Cadd9 
My love sleeps beside me, 
G/B                   Bb 
 In the shelter of my mind, 
        Dsus2          Cadd9 
Could I ever share her dreams, 
G/B                Bb 
 On the peppermint wind? 
 

Interlude 
Dsus2  Cadd9  G/B  Bb 


 
Dsus2         Cadd9 
 Cool evening rain comes down, 
G/B              Bb 
 Upon the old September trees, 
Dsus2              C 
 Dawn whips softly through the town, 
G/B                    Bb 
 The weary night flies on the breeze. 
 

 
Dsus2          Cadd9 
My love lies beside me, 
G/B                Bb 
 She wakes with no sound, 
    Dsus2   Cadd9 
And gently away, 
G/B                 Bb 
Goes the peppermint wind.
