This is Lullaby of Woe, from the trailer for the game The Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt. It’s one of my favorite games of all time, and what an amazing soundtrack!
YOU guys voted for me to record this song next, so I hope you’ll enjoy it! Thank you so much to everyone who voted!
Feel free to comment and suggest songs you would like me to record in the future, I always take your suggestions into consideration!
This was recorded in a mangrove forest in central Thailand. The place really reminds me of the swamps in the game. As I was getting into position to record the video, I kept looking back to make sure I wasn’t being followed by any drowners =P
One thing you don’t see in these videos is the challenge of finding and shooting in cool locations. Two hours earlier, this grove was inaccessible because the tide was too high to get there. An hour later, and it would have been too dark. But it’s a fun challenge, and I hope you agree with me that this background is Witcher-y enough to have been worth the hassle, hahah
Here are the chords I used in the song, if you want to play as well! (And remember, if you do use these chords to record your own version, let me know! I’d love to see it).
LULLABY OF WOE
(capo on 3rd fret)
Am Dm Am
Wolves asleep amidst the trees
Dm Am B7 E7
Bats all a swaying in the breeze
Am Dm Am
But one soul lies anxious wide awake
Dm Am E7 Am
Fearing all manner of ghouls, hags and wraiths
Am E7 Am E7
For your dolly Polly sleep has flown
Am E7 Am E7
Don't dare let her tremble alone
Am E7
For the witcher, heartless, cold
Dm Am
Paid in coin of gold
Dm Am
He comes he'll go leave naught behind
E7 Am
But heartache and woe
E7 Am
Deep, deep woe
Am Dm Am
Birds are silent for the night
Dm Am B7 E7
Cows turned in as daylight dies
Am Dm Am
But one soul lies anxious wide awake
Dm Am E7 Am
Fearing all manner of ghouls, hags and wraiths
Am E7 Am E7
My dear dolly Polly shut your eyes
Am E7 Am E7
Lie still, lie silent, utter no cries
Am E7
As the witcher, brave and bold
Dm Am
Paid in coin of gold
Dm
He'll chop and slice you
Am
Cut and dice you
E7 Am
Eat you up whole
E7 Am
Eat you whole
And here is an example of the picking pattern I did:

YOU GUYS picked this song! It was a lot of fun to record something so creepy, and I did my best to find a Witcher-y location to do your choice justice, haha.
Do you like voting on which songs I should sing? Or do you prefer to be surprised? Let me know in the comments! (I already have next week’s video in progress, but I’ll do more voting options in the future if you enjoy them!)
Gustavo Steiner totally spoiled either way ❤️❤️❤️ sending so much love 🎸
I vote for a mix! It's really cool to get to vote, but surprises are always nice too.
@@gretchenholm5494 The same opinion!
The two proposals have as many advantages as the other (and my ability to choose has hardly changed in one week)
The surprise is great, and the curiosity of advanced choices is also nice, so I'm not going to help much for a clear choice. (I owe you a big thank you Gretchen for an email full of little wonders found that night and that kept me awake part of the night)
I like voting but getting surprised is definitely a treat.
With the words of the super modest Yennefer, "I want everything!!!" I had a little "research" session in an Irish Pub and my slightly intoxicated... uhm... educated guess for the next song is "Whiskey in a Jar" it was the most Irish song today. 🤣🤣🤣
This is one of the best quality covers I have heard of this song! You should have more subscribers!
I'm glad you liked it, Russell, thank you! =D
Wow, this was positively scary. Beautiful but haunting.
And your acting, impressive.
I'm very glad you liked it! The location was very inspiring for a creepy mood hahah =D
What’s a stunning theatrical like performance Gustavo! Wow 😍 we frikkin love it so much!! ❤️❤️❤️ you make the Witcher show so appealing 😍
Thank you so much, guys! This place is really cool, isn't it? The show is great to spend about 8 hours, but you can always go for the game and enjoy 100+ hours of this =P
You deserve so much more subsribers haha, the effort and the quality you put in your videos is amazing ! I love it
Hahah, thank you so much!! We'll get there, and I'm glad you're here from the early days =) Would love to hear from you about whether you want to vote on songs I'll sing in the future, or prefer to be surprised!
@@GustavoSteiner I really like to be surpised since it allow me to discorver songs I may don't know, but voting is also cool for me
And also thank you so much for always giving the chords in the description it help a lot since im trying to learn how to play haha
@@gram2peuf798 Thank you! I'm glad I'm able to help you with your learning, there are many songs out there that are beautiful and simple enough that you can already play them =D
It seems like I can keep doing a mix of votes and surprises, then, haha
you do marvels with your voice and guitar. And sharing chords is so generous. Thanks and godspeed.
Thank you very much, my friend! I'm happy to share the chords, and glad to hear that you're enjoying my music =D
The video is extremly high quality! Singer, guitar, background...everything's just perfect👍
Thank you so much, Laura, that means a lot! So glad you enjoyed it =)
Youre the only one ive found actually playing the song and not juat an instrumental of the words! This is awesome
Thank you so much, Gray! I appreciate it, and I'm glad you enjoyed it =D
It s wonderful! Amazing cover, clear voice, nice guitar playing. Thank you Gustavo, for this music.
Thank you so much for the kind words, Vladimir! Glad to see you on this video too, and looking forward to your next release! Any plans for when it will be? =)
@@GustavoSteiner I noticed the answer too late. Hm... There are plans:) to Play old tunes using a new guitar. Then play something new. Add music that I made up myself. (very soon) And some more training videos
Final de tarde de outono, ainda na pandemia ouvindo esta musica que me leva para longe
Muito obrigado pelo comentário, Astrid =D
Realmente, agora o jeito é viajar virtualmente, né...
Damn, Gustavo is not only a great musician but also a Witcher 3 fan, you're great man!
Absolutely, Witcher 3 is the best game I've ever played, with no competition!
Thank you as always, Ulrich =D
@@GustavoSteiner mine aswell, you have a good taste in Video Games!
@@ulrichkierberger1698 Hahah so do you =P
@@GustavoSteiner I thought the heartless Witcher fears NO manner of ghouls or wraths.
I thought maybe you were going to switch it up from "all" to "no" one the second verse, but you stuck with "all"
:(
A lovely cover though! That's literally my only complaint! So Great job!
@@Pip8448 Hey there, thanks for the comment! Yeah, I did some research before recording, and all versions of the lyrics had "all" in that part. Besides, I believe the lyrics are not actually referring to the Witcher, so having it be "all" makes more sense to me.
I'm glad you liked my version, thank you! =D
So beautiful yet creepy!! And that setting is so eerie; I wouldn't have known you were in Thailand!
Thank you! Yes, I agree! I think it's all about camera angles and framing. I'm very happy with the results =D
Nice tune... been a while since I heard it last..
Thank you! It's one of the best Witcher songs =D
omg.loved this.thanks!!!!
I'm glad to hear that, thank you! =D
Once again killed it 👌 didn't see a Witcher 3 one coming but this one was beautiful! Gave me nostalgia from the game haha
Thanks a lot, Jonny! Yeah, I really want to play more of those games! The soundtrack is SO good! Thanks for the support!
Very, very, very, veeeeeeery cool!!!! Added to my playlist!
That's great to hear, thank you very much! =D
That was so great I cannot even explain it, I love it
Thank you so much! I'm glad you're enjoying my covers. Hope you're doing well! =D
awesome ! great work
Thank you very much, Giovanni! Glad to see you here again =)
Well done! The way you sang, really send shivers down my spine.
Thank you so much! That's such a great compliment, I'm really happy to hear that =D
WOW ! beautiful rendition of the song, Great vocals and great guitar picking, you got fantastic feeling in this song. There are so many good songs from the Witcher.
That means a lot, thank you so much for your kind words!
And yes! The Witcher has a lot of great music, both from the show and from the games =)
Acting and singing in the same time is not easy.
But you managed to do it, so congratulations
I'm really glad to hear that, Itaria. Thank you so much! It was fun to record a creepy song, especially when it's from the Witcher =)
That is the best cover ive heard for this song. Keep going, you are gonna become big one day
Thank you very much, Sathyadev! What a great compliment, I'm glad you enjoyed it =D
An excellent, moody performance! Wishing you all the best and continued success. Big like!
Thank you so much, Kristian! I'm really glad you enjoyed the performance, this one is such a cool song to sing 🙂 Thank you for the support!
Well done mate ! Bravo 😎🤘🎸
Thank you very much, I'm glad you liked it! =D
Awesome! Please don’t stop. I’m sure soon you will have a million followers.
Thank you so much! With your support, I'll keep going no matter how many followers I have =)
My friend! Thanks for this great video and the chords 🙋
Thank you very much, Ariel! I'm glad I was able to help with the chords, and I hope you have fun playing it yourself!
Best cover of this sing by far
Thank you so much, James! I'm glad you're enjoying my music =)
Hope you're staying safe and perhaps enjoying some Witcher time.
Excellent Bro like it a lot
Thank you very much, Alfredo! I'm glad you're enjoying the channel =D
É muito bom ver um brasileiro fazendo um trabalho incrível desses
Muito obrigado, Caique! Brasil-sil-sil =P
Great voice
Thank you, Ally! =D
Wolves asleep amidst the trees
Bats all a swaying in the breeze

Fearing no* manner of ghouls, hags and wraiths
For your dolly Polly sleep has flown
Don't dare let her tremble alone
For the witcher, heartless, cold
Paid in coin of gold
He comes he'll go leave naught behind
But heartache and woe
Deep, deep woe

My dear dolly Polly shut your eyes
Lie still, lie silent, utter no cries

Cut and dice you
Eat you up whole
Eat you whole
Que lugar incrível. Interpretação mais ainda. 👏👏
Muito obrigado! Parece um pouco com o mangue do Itacorubi, hein =P
Cenário, atmosfera, interpretação. Impressionantes. Parabéns.
Danke schön! =D
Nice job being creepy! And the background definitely helps...
It helps, doesn't it? Perfect setting for this song =)
We agree even though we never watched it 😂😍
GOOD STUFF!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it, thank you! =D
@@GustavoSteiner I like to listen to music when writing for my D&D campaigns, and this was so inspirational!
Oh, that's awesome! So I'm sure you listen to a lot of epic music =D
Please fell free to share your favorites, I always love getting more ideas for future covers!
Perfect as always! Creepy atmosphere, great location and a wonderful interpretation! The drowners were probably hiding and listening haha!
Since I love your covers, I'd love to make some possible song requests for the future. No pressure, but I'd love to hear your interpretation of these ones!
"The Song of Gaunter o' Dimm" from The Witcher 3: Hearts of Stone (that fuckin' creepy song!)
"Song of Durin", "Fall of Gil-Galad" and "Boromir's Song" from Lord of the Rings
"The Dornishman's Wife" and "Ballad of Danny Flint" from Game of Thrones"
Hahah yeah, I have to admit I glanced over my shoulder a couple of times just in case! =P Thanks for the kind words, as always, I really appreciate it.
Thanks for these awesome suggestions, too! I love that they're a little more obscure than the most popular songs from those series, and they're all such great choices. I was actually just listening to Gaunter o'Dimm yesterday, definitely super creepy. That one is already on my "potential future songs" list, and I'm adding all of the others right now! Does this mean you'd rather vote (like we did on Lullaby of Woe and the backdrop for Song of the White Wolf) than be surprised? =P
@@GustavoSteiner Yeah voting is totally fine for me, but I also don't have anything against suprises! Maybe do the voting thing and have a suprise up your sleeves from time to time that no one expected? :D
@@celtiberianwarrior3783 Yeah, that's what I'm leaning toward! Next week's song is one that I don't think anyone has mentioned, but I really enjoyed the vote, too! Makes it easier on me when I don't need to be the one to decide between several great options, hahah.
This is amazing man. Just found out your channel 💯💯
Thank you so much, Lakshya! So glad you're enjoying the channel 😀
I'm assuming you're also a fan of the Witcher? 😉
@@GustavoSteiner Very much so. It's probably my favourite series right now. One request: Could you write down the strumming pattern for the "Her Sweet Kiss" cover in that video just like you did for this one?
@@AdmMusicc I just replied over there with the pattern. Hope you're well and enjoying some more amazing series!
@@GustavoSteiner Thanks so much. Check out my cover of this using your chords and picking pattern!

Invejo sua voz de bardo kkkkk, estou estudando pra ter a minha, seu timbre lembra o meu, isso me ajuda muito, valeu! E obrigado por cantar pra nós
Hahah voz de bardo, muito obrigado =D
Que legal que você está estudando! Segue firme então, tem muita música boa esperando por uma voz de bardo por aí =P
Obrigado pelo apoio, e avisa se você postar as suas próprias versões aqui no UA-cam!
@@GustavoSteiner aviso sim! Eu fiz o caminho inverso, gosto de heavy metal e aprendi a fazer aquele tipo de som, só agora estou vindo pro melódico kkkkk
@@kendarr Nossa, vocais de heavy metal são super impressionantes! Vou esperar os seus videos então =D
Man is coming back to reply to comments from a video from 2 years ago
I appreciate and am thankful for every comment! =D
Perfecto! What about 'silver for monsters'?))
Hahah I love that piece! I feel like that one will require a truly epic location to do it justice! I'll see if I find anywhere worthy =)
Wow, what a job of interpretation!!! It's incredible. 🖤 (Even the mysterious and scary little side)
Each time, I wonder how it will be possible for me to appreciate your new cover more, compared to the previous one, and each time I end up swept away by your pretty voice. (and your incredible ability to move)
You have this power to make people's emotions dance from smile to tears.
And I still forgot to take off my glasses before listening to you ...
Last week, I was chatting with the moms in my group, and we were wondering about the personality we would like to see in concert.
They had a clear opinion, I didn't mention a name at the time. Definitely, a concert by Gustavo Steiner would be really cool.
And you deserve to be contacted for a song from season 2. (which I understood was in the works.)
Many thanks for this great moment. :)
(and the place deserved all the risks that you took and I add that Uncle Lek has a lot of taste, and he will perhaps get new letters for the other side of the helmet? Hello from France for him ) :)
Have a nice week end!
Christine, your comments always bring a smile to my face. Thank you so much for everything!
I'm glad you found this song touching even though it is creepy, haha.
You know, I would love to start doing concerts! I hope once the channel gets big enough and the opportunities start to come, that I'll have a world tour and I can stop in France for several concerts. Now THAT would be nice =D
Uncle Lek is amazing, and so much fun! He's now the official driver in Thailand for the channel haha.
Thank you for your incredibly kind words, and I hope you have a great weekend.
@@GustavoSteiner The smile is often reciprocal. :)
On the other hand, speaking of "kind words", on your previous cover, I spoke a little hastily, and the author of the song is enormously talented too, I discovered other titles by him, and if I didn't appreciate its work at its fair value, it's most likely because I haven't yet watched the series and delved into its universe. Tomorrow I'm going...
Have a good day!
@@christinebordes9991 Sounds like you're in for a treat, then! Hope you enjoy it =D
And I agree, Declan de Barra was great in the songs of the show and also has some great music from other projects. I'm glad you explored more of his repertoire.
Have a great one!
@@GustavoSteiner I finally watched the first episode, and from the start, I felt like I was diving into your video above, but I'm not unhappy that you skipped the kikimore.😂
Good week to you both.
@@christinebordes9991 Ohhh nice, I'm glad you're watching the show! Hahaha, the kikimore was definitely not invited to the video shooting =P
What do you think of the show so far? I'm also curious about what you'll think once you're further ahead, and especially about the scenes with Jaskier the bard, haha.
Now I'm doing more research and trying to find the next songs to record, looking at movies, games, and tv shows for inspiration.
Also, we just got to Vietnam, so it's hard to focus on singing when there's so much food to try =P So far, the Cao Lau is my favorite (have you tried it?), but I'm only starting, so you never know!
Hope you have a great week!
do one for Wolven storm from Witcher 3: wild hunt
Haha I did! Here it is: ua-cam.com/video/BeQsZOXed6U/v-deo.html
Thanks for asking!
Ooooooh, it's so spoopy 👻 👻👻 I did not know that Crookback Bog is in Thailand. 😂😂😂
Hahaha exactly my thoughts!
Now the question is... did you sing along? =P
@@GustavoSteiner Vive La Résistance!!! I did not sing for 35 seconds😂😂😂 But I sang along on my second rewatch. I am weak😂😂😂
@@DesdemonaDeCay Hahaha good! And how's your progress on the Witcher 3 going? =P
@@GustavoSteiner Uhm... Really good. 😂😂😂 I tried to watch a Witcher Let's play and slept throughout the video🤣🤣🤣
@@DesdemonaDeCay That's what happens when you take shortcuts... =P
And here's your new hint of today: Jorah Mormont likes this song... (I'm being nice, I think I already gave you enough to figure it out!)
who said only women could sing this song ? You prooved them wrong.
Thank you very much, I'm glad you enjoyed my version! =D
