Verse 1:
Em
Please sleep my
C
darling sleep
Em
Your cry for inspiration
never reaches ears
C
on distant stars
Em
And every night our
C
lonely planet slides
Em
across the universe
C
And I won't pretend
I understand
Interlude: Em--C--
Verse 2:
Em
Please sleep my
C
darling sleep
Your death by
Em
information won't
disturb the peace
C
on distant stars
Em
And even when you
C
lock the doors and
slide behind
Em
the unlit shades
C
None of us are
strangers anymore
Chorus:
G
So fall asleep
Em
with the windows open
G
Come to me with the
Em
worst you've said and done
G
You'll close your
eyes and see me
Em
A little death makes
life more meaningful
G Em
I stand no chance at all
Interlude: Em--
Verse 3:
Em
Please sleep
C
my darling sleep
Your car crash in
Em
slow motion won't upset
C
the pace on distant stars
Em C
And one by one our years
of our lives stumble
Em
as the moments pass
C
So please hold on
Please hold on
(Repeat Chorus)
Interlude: G--Em-- x2
Bridge:
G
Please sleep
Em
my darling sleep
G
Please sleep
Em
my darling sleep
