Art Garfunkel - Crying In My Sleep
# From the album Watermark #
CAPO: 3rd Fret
INTRO: C Em Am C-G-C
Dm
I took a walk around the yard
Em
Dug the flowers 'til it got too hard
Am
Smoked my first pack of cigarettes today
C Dm
Then I, I went down, down to Lucy's old Cafe
Em
Put a half a case away
Am
Took a sleeping pill and I tried to watch TV
F
But you know baby the leading lady
Em Dm G
Looked too much like you for the likes of me
CHORUS:
Am Em F
And, I woke up crying in my sleep
Em Am Dm G
I was talking to your pillow
Am Em F Em
And I reached out to touch your hand
Dm Am
And knocked the phone off the nightstand
Em F
And the operator said, ("May I help you please?")
Dm Em F
And I said, "No thanks baby, tonight there is no help for me
G C G F
I just had a bad dream, that's all that's wrong with me
G C G F G
See, I just had a bad dream"
C Dm
Went out to loosen up the car
Em
Somehow I wound up at the rainbow bar
Am
I had a scotch and soda on the run
F
But, I didn't get too far
C Dm
The I, then I ran down, down some friends I used to know
Em
I dragged them out to see the show
Am
I ran myself a bath and I tried to read your book
F
But you know baby this time
Em Dm G
It just didn't seem quite worth all the time it took
Am Em F
And, I woke up crying in my sleep
Em Am Dm G
I was talking to your pillow
Am Em F Em
And I reached out to touch your hand
Dm Am
And knocked the phone off the nightstand
Em F
And the operator said, ("May I help you please?")
Dm Em F
And I said, "No thanks baby, tonight there is no help for me
G C G F
You see, I just had a bad, bad dream, that's all that's wrong with me
G C G Am
See, I just had a bad dream
G C G F G
You know, I just had a bad dream"
