Sleeping

• Intro

Intro
F#m A D A

Verse 1
     F#m                         A
They cry 'cause that's what they do
       D
Oh, when somebody's died
                A
That's just the right thing to do
        F#m                 A
But you stay locked in your room
        D
And the months turn into years
           A
I couldn't list out all my fears

Chorus
     F#m               A
So I slipped into that pretty, black mess
D                 A
Sold my soul, and yeah, it made less
     F#m            A
Than I knew I could get on for it
D               A
I was sleeping, I was snoring

Post-Chorus
F#m    A
La-la, la-la
D      A
La-la, la-la
F#m    A
La-la, la-la
D      A
La-la, la-la

Verse 2
     F#m                           A
They cheer 'cause that's what they do
            D
When you're happy for yourself
              A
They'll be so happy with you
      F#m            A
Until push comes to shove
      D
And nobody is around
       A
Nobody offers any love

Chorus
     F#m               A
So I slipped into that pretty, black mess
D                   A
Sold my songs back, then it made sense
    F#m          A
But I knew I was so in for it
D               A
I was sleeping, I was snoring

Post-Chorus
F#m
(La-la) You didn't meet me at the bar
A
(La-la) You didn't meet me in the rain
D
(La-la) You didn't meet me at the car
A
(La-la) You only drove me insane (Insane)
F#m
(La-la) You didn't meet me in the park
A
(La-la) You didn't meet me at her grave
D
(La-la) You didn't meet me at the bar
A
(La-la) You only drove me insane (Insane)

F#m A D A

Chorus
       F#m               A
When I slipped into that pretty, black mess
D                 A     N.C.
Sold my soul, and yeah, it made less (La-la, la-la)
     F#m            A
Than I knew I could get on for it (La-la, la-la)
D                A
I was desperate, I was soarin' (La-la, la-la)
       F#m               A
When I slipped into that pretty, black mess (La-la, la-la)
D                  A
Sold my soul, back then it made sense (La-la, la-la)
    F#m          A
But I knew I was so in for it (La-la, la-la)
D               A
I was sleeping, I was snoring (La-la, la-la)

Post-Chorus
F#m
(La-la) You didn't meet me at the bar
A
(La-la) You didn't meet me in the rain
D
(La-la) You didn't meet me at the car
A
(La-la) You only drove me insane (Insane)
F#m
(La-la) You didn't meet me in the park
A
(La-la) You didn't meet me at her grave
D
(La-la) You didn't meet me at the bar
A
(La-la) You only drove me insane
