Ab Eb Db Ab Eb
And you said it was like fire around the brim
Db Ab Eb
Burning solid burning thin the burning rim
Db Ab Eb
Like stars burning holes right through the dark
Db Ab
Flicking fire like saltwater into my eyes
Eb Db Ab Eb
You were one inch from the edge of this bed
Db Ab Eb Db
I dragged you back a sleepyhead
Ab Eb Db
sleepyhead
Eb Db Ab Eb
They couldn't think of something to say the day you burst
Db Ab Eb
With all their lions and all their might and all their thirst
Db Ab Eb
They crowd your bedroom like some thoughts wearing thin
Db Ab Eb
Against the walls against your rules against your skin
Db Ab Eb
My beard grew down to the floor and out through the doors
Db Ab Eb Db
Of your eyes, begonia skies like a sleepyhead
Ab Eb Db
sleepyhead
