Am
my sheets were cold tonight
Em C G
had to leave them for a dying fire
D
burn up time for dreams
Am
lovely soul, you’ve gone to sleep
Em C G
silence empty house I cannot breathe
D
you’ve said too many nice things
D Am Em
can I keep spinning to your turns
D Am Em
can I just fall back in your open arms
D C G
and when you ask, I’ll always sing you a song
Am C G
bout a girl who tried to live inside a dream
D Am C G
won’t you speak, she wants to hear all of it, everything
D Am C G
go to sleep, cause morning will come sooner than you think…
Am
give me a book to read
Em C G
talk me your mind and let me see
D
what’s crashing round inside of you
Am
the fire hasn’t gone out yet so
Em C G
can we climb the fire escape we’ll see
D
just as far as we want to get
D Am Em
can I keep spinning to your turns
D Am Em
can I just fall back in your open arms
D C G
and when you ask, I’ll always sing you a song
Am C G
bout a girl who tried to live inside a dream
D Am C G
won’t you speak, she wants to hear all of it, everything
D Am C G
go to sleep, cause morning will come sooner than you think…
Am
looking up at the ceiling they
Em C G
listened and there wasn’t time to catch
D
the feet kicked out from under me
Am
then I caught your eyes, please can I
Em C G
keep them with me for a future time
D
they’ll help me when I try to fly
D Am Em
can I keep spinning to your turns
D Am Em
can I just fall back in your open arms
D C G
and when you ask, I’ll always sing you a song
Am C G
bout a girl who tried to live inside a dream
D Am C G
won’t you speak, she wants to hear all of it, everything
D Am C G
go to sleep, cause tomorrow will come sooner than you think…
D Am C G
go to sleep, cause morning will come sooner than you think…
D Am C G
won’t you speak, she wants to hear all of it, everything
D Am C G (Am? or whatever)
now you see, a girl who’s trying to live inside a dream…
