[Intro]
G Am D G
[Verse]
G
I know I’ve seen your face somewhere
Am
Selling something some big idea
D
I know I’ve seen that vacant stare
G
Selling sunsets for somebody else
G
You find yourself asking yourself
Am
What is any of it worth
D
You find yourself looking up at night
G
From the bottom of the earth
[Chorus]
Am D G Bm Em
And oh can this world not afford to sleep anymore
Am D
And oh did your sheep start jumping
Bm
They grow out their teeth
Em Am D
Did they need a little something more than this
[Verse]
G
The taste of trouble on your lips
Am
‘Cause now there bitin’ at your thoughts
D
You tell yourself just to turn away
G
But you know you’ve already lost
G
The smell of rain when it’s on a wind
Am
Will never be paid in full
D
You try in vain to account for this mess
G
And everything that you stole
[Chorus]
Am D G Bm Em
And oh can this world not afford to sleep anymore
Am D
And oh did your sheep start jumping
Bm
They grow out their teeth
Em Am D
Did they need a little something more than this
[Verse]
G
‘Cause now they’re bitin’ at your feet
Am
They got you running from this place
D
And now they’re breathing down your neck
G
Your eyes look lonely in your face
G
I see you looking just out of frame
Am
What is it pulling you there
D
‘Cause things can never the stay the same
G
So what is keeping you here
[Chorus]
Am D G Bm Em
And oh can this world not afford to sleep anymore
Am D
And oh did your sheep start jumping
Bm
They grow out their teeth
Em
And need a little something now
Am D
Every time you think well they’d be biting at your thoughts
Bm
And every time you blink
Em
Well you’ll be so damn far
Am D
But you want more than this
[Outro]
G
I know I’ve seen your face somewhere
