Capo 1st fret
Standard (EADGBE)
I'm desperate to know how you are, I hope you're deep asleep
I've been awake for days, trying to study every inch of you body
in this picture, from a distant day, when I could safely say
nothing in this world could tear me down in any way
but like a dream you disappeared, without a sound, without a trace
Chorus
Sleep well darling, wherever you are, i hope that you're happy tonight
and maybe you found someone to love you right
sleep well darling, im desperate to say now i need you more than ever
but all i could say was goodnight
Verse
This is for a girl back home, she tore down all my walls
loved me for all she had known, but I pushed it all away from me
and no no, even if i knew, even if i knew what to say to you
It's just too late to make you stay, I'm sick of fighting this broken fate
will someone else get to tell you that you're beautiful
Chorus
Sleep well darling, wherever you are I hope that you're happy tonight
and maybe you found someone to love you right
Sleep well darling, I'm desperate to say now i need you more that ever
But all I could say was goodnight.
Bridge
Its the last thing i want but its all that I've got
Its the last thing i need but I still carry you in my heart
In my heart
Its the last thing i want but its all that ive got
its the last thing i need but I still carry you in my heart
In my heart.
Chorus
Sleep well darling, wherever you are I hope that you're happy tonight
and maybe you found someone to love you right
Sleep well darling, I'm desperate to say that i need more than ever
But all i could say was goodnight.
