INTRO x1
BGAGA
VERSE 1
BmG
I lay awake at night and pray

Not to see the light of day

I wonder how to behave right
BmG
He has left me such a mess
A
Counting to protest
GA
My mind can't get no rest
PRE CHORUS 1
Bm
Fast asleep where I keep my memories
G
Calling me out in dreams
He visits me
A
What will be
GA
Will I see him again soon?
Oh oh oh oh
CHORUS 1
BmAG
Why am I so terrified of waking?

He's gone and I feel I've been forsaken
BmAGABm
In sleep is the only place I get to see him, get to love him

What will be

Will I see him again soon?
