[E5][E][E5][E]
[E5]

[Verse 1]
[F#]I should be calling collect from jail
For [E]the [F#]things I commit each
night in my [Em]head[G5]
[F#]Like last night in my sleep I
got to snuff you
But then I woke up again,
[E]safe [G#5]in my lit[A5]tle bed
[E5]

[Verse 2]
[Em]No one i[Bb]s saf[E5]e when I close my [Bb]eyes[E5]
I come to [Em]take [Bb]your life
[E5][E][E5][E][E5]

[Verse 3]
[F#]I get to force your untimely
disappearance
Each night in my dreams,
when I'm fast [Em]asleep
[G5]I cl[F#]ose my eyes,
and you just vanish [E]soon as I
[F#]Lay down my head when I'm
[G#5]dead to the w[A5]hole w[Em]ide world
[E]

[Verse 4]
[E5]No o[Em]ne is saf[Bb]e whe[E5]n I close my eye s[Bb][E5][E][E5]
I come to take [Bb]your [E5]life[E][E5][E][Bb5][F#]
And [E]then [F#]I wake up aga[A5]in and
[Am]it was a[G]ll j[A5]ust a [Am]dream[A5][B]
And [A5]everything [Bm]is the same

[Verse 5]
[F#]
(Sleepwalker) Did I give
you con[E]crete [F#]shoes
And throw you [E]off of a bridge?
(Sleepwalker) When I
[F#]lay down to sleep
Pray [A5]your soul's mine to keep
[Bm]I feel you near [D5]me

[Interlude 1]
Go to sleep, Sleepwalker
[F#]
[F#m][F#]
[E]
Just taking [Bb]a

[Verse 6]
[E5][E][E5][E]
stroll; don't go [Bb5]to sleep![E]
Here's some toothpicks for your eye[Am]s!
[E]

[Verse 7]
[F#]You always m[E]ake [F#]an excellent cadaver
I roll your body up in a carpet
to make [E]music [G]in the
[F#]Trunk of my limousine,
wrapped up in a rug
A fitting end is that I [G#5]send you
up the [A5]river like a punk
[E5][E][E5]

[Verse 8]
No [Bb]one i[E5]s safe w[E]he[E5]n I close my eye[Bb][E5]
[E]s I[E5] come to take your [Bb]life
[E5][E][E5]

[Verse 9]
[F#]The angel of death[E] is pi[F#]ssed
off at me again
Just because I got to put you
out of my [Em]misery[G5]
[F#]It d[E]oesn't m[F#]atter; I am
without [E]fear
[F#]Now you're dead; I won't
shed an[E]other [A5]bloody [E]tear for you

[Verse 10]
[E]
[E5]No one i[Bb]s safe [E5]when [E]I close [E5]my eye s[Bb][E5][E][E5]
I come [E]to [E5]take [Bb]your [E5]life[E][Bb5][F#]
I'm call[E]ing down [F#]the thunder,
[A5]then[Am] you'll slee[G]p with[A5] the fishe[B]s
The an[A5]swer to [B]all of my wishes

[Verse 11]
[F#](Sleepwalker) Did I tell you
[E]I was in m[F#]ovies
Then dump you gar[E]roted,
lying naked in [F#]a ditch?
(Sleep[F#m]walker) Everyday,
[A5]another way[Bm]
I know you can [D5]hear me

[E]I

[Verse 12]
[F#]think you'd look [E]nice [F#m]in
[F#]a Colombian necktie
Should stop your tongue
from wagging [E]the dog
[G5]No m[F#]ore stupidity fr[E]om you,[F#]
as I pull your [E]tongue through
[F#]For a smile from ear t[G5]o ea[G#5]r,
now [E]there's nothing to hear

[Verse 13]
[E]
No [Bb]one is [E]safe when [E5]I close [Bb]my ey[E5]e
[E]s I come to take you[Bb]r lif[E]e[F#]
And then I wake [A5]up and i[Am]t
was all just a [G]dream[E]
[B]And everything is still the sam[Bm]e

[Verse 14]
[F#](Sleepwalker) Did I give
you con[E]crete shoes
[F#]And throw your body off [E]of a
bridge?
(Sleepwalker) When
[F#]I lay down to sleep
[F#m]Pray y[A5]our soul is mine to
[B]keep I feel you [D5]near me

[Verse 15]
[F#](Sleepwalker) Or did I tell
you [E]I was in m[F#]ovies
Then dump you gar[E]roted,
lying naked in [F#]a ditch?
(Sleepwalker) Everyday,
[A5]another way[Bm]
[B]I know you c[Bm]an h[D5]ear me

[Verse 16]
[F#]
(Sleepwalker) Did I [E]buy you the [F#]farm
Put a [E]horse head in your
bed?
(Sleepwalker) When
[F#]I lay down to sleep
Pray [A5]your soul is mine [Bm]to keep; I
feel you [D5]near [D]me[F#]

[Verse 17]
[E](Sleepwalker[F#]) Everyday
Everyday, another [E]way
(Sleepwalker) When [F#]I lay
down to sleep
Pray your [A5]soul is mine [Bm]to keep; I
know you can [D5]hear me

[Verse 18]
(Sleepwalker) [F#](Sleep
walker)
(Sleepwalker)
(Sleepwalker[E])
