Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

I can see you, don't even know you

Falling into the sheets at night

I place my hands flat on my chest

I feel the heart beat back the night

I try counting sheep, and I talk to the shepherd

And I play with my pillow for ever and ever

I sit alone and I watch the clock

 I breathe in on the tick and out on the tock

I can hear your bare feet on the kitchen floor

I don't have to have these dreams no more

 Cause I've found someone just to hold me tight

Hold the insomniac all night

intro again played only one time

Dig my head down deep so I can't hear the cars outside on the street

 And the stars are laughing

 They get a kick out of my misery

 I tried everything short of Aristotle

 to Dramamine And the whiskey bottle

Pray for the day when my ship comes in

I can sleep the sleep of the just again

I can hear your bare feet on the kitchen floor

I don't have to have these dreams no more

 Cause I've found someone just to hold me tight

Hold the insomniac all night
