A#
Protecting you
Dm
Protecting me
A# Dm Asus4 A7
I throw the evidence into a trunk and drop it in the sea
A#
Lie awake
Dm
I sleep awake
A# Dm
I sleep with one eye on the bedroom door
Asus4 A7
The other on the cake
A#
Protecting me
Dm
Protecting you
A# Dm Asus4 A7
Carving away our fingerprints out of our fingertips until they're smooth
[Chorus]
F
Lie awake
A7
I sleep awake
A# Dm
I sleep with one eye on my royal flush
Asus4
The other on the take
A7
I sleep awake
[Verse]
A#
Protecting this
Dm
Protecting that
A# Dm Asus4
Calling a deadbeat with his dead boat wrapped around his artifact
A7
Protecting that
A#
Lie awake
Dm
I sleep awake
A# Dm Asus4 A7
I sleep with one hand on my the other 'round my baby's waist
[Chorus]
F
Lie awake
A7
I sleep awake
A# Dm
I go to bed with all my lights turned on
Asus4
So I don't slip away
A7
I stay awake
A# Dm
Out on the street I keep a started car
Asus4 A7
Who only waits for me conveniently
A#
[Breakdown]
F A Dm A# (repeat)
F A
Lie awake
Dm A#
I sleep awake
F A
Lie awake
Dm A#
I sleep awake
F A Dm A#
Ahhh ahhh
