Capo 1st Fret
[Verse]
C Am
May you find solace in the gentle arms of sleep
G F
Despite the wolves outside your door
C Am
In time you will see them all as harmless
G F
And their idle threats easy to ignore
C Am
And if ever fate should choose to smite you
C Am
Stand your ground, never walk away
C Am
Please don't ever let the world defeat you
C Am
Don't get buried in its decay
C Am
As you drift into the gauzy realm of dreams
G F
May you take comfort in the thought that you are safe
C Am
For it only takes a fraction of a second
G F
For all of this to change
[Chorus]
F Am
Return to me
C G
When slumber's fog has lifted
F Am
Return to me
C G
Stronger than before
[Verse]
C Am
As you sink beneath the soothing streams of time
G F
May you be thankful that you had another day
C Am
For there comes a time when each of us will enter
G F
A sleep from which we will never wake
C Am
And if ever fate should choose to smite you
C Am
Stand your ground, never walk away
C Am
Please don't ever let the world defeat you
C Am
Don't get buried in its decay
C Am
Close your eyes now, if only for a moment
G F
For it's time you get some rest
C Am
The wolves are gone and nothing here can harm you
G F
Let go of your fragile consciousness
[Chorus]
F Am
Return to me
C G
When slumber's fog has lifted
F Am
Return to me
C G
Stronger than before
