AE/G#F#m Sometimes I lie awake at night and wonder C#m/ED Where my life will lead me A/EEF#mA/G Waiting to pass under Sleep's dark and silent gate
DEA I found my love too late D Running around day after day A/C#C#7/F Looking for the time to play F#mF#m/EF#m/D# While my old friends slipped away
Esus Never should have had to try so hard E To make a love work out, I guess DE I don't know what love has got to do with happiness F#mA/E But the times when we were happy F#m/D#D Were the times we never tried
A Sitting down by the highway A/C#D Looking down the road
Waiting for a ride A I don't know where I've been A/C#D Wishing I could fly away
Don't know where I'm going
Wishing I could hide AA/C#D Oh God this is some shape I'm in A/E When the only thing that makes me cry E Is the kindness in my baby's eye
AE/G#F#m Sometimes I lie awake at night and wonder C#m/ED Where the years have gone A/E They have all passed under EF#mA/GDA Sleep's dark and silent gate
