The Cat Empire – Lullaby chords

Chords:
Transpose:
In the song, Felix sings in a very loose, free style. Due to this it's hard to place 
exactly where you change the chord just by looking at the words here- but as long as you 
know the beat, you'll be fine.

The second verse and chorus have the same chord pattern as the first verse and chorus. 
The final chorus is the same again, except with a key change.

Also, in the first verse there is a bit where there is no music, just words. At these 
points, I've put the chords in brackets. They are optional.

I've left out the instrumental trumpet solo chords. Sorry if the lyrics are wrong- I 
copied it straight from another website without checking first. My bad!
