Wait For Sleep Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][Esus4][Em][Esus4][Am]
[D][Esus4][Em]
[C]
[Am][Esus4]

[Verse 1]
Standing [Esus4]by the window[Em][C]
Eyes upon the [Am]moon[Bm][Esus4]
Hoping that the [C]memory
Will leave her [Am]spirit [Bm]soon

[Verse 2]
[Am]She shuts the doors and [Bm]lights
and lays her [Em]body on the bed
[C]Where ima[Am]ges and wor[Bm]ds are
running [Em]deep[C]
[Am]She has too much p[Bm]ride to pull
[Em]the sheets above [C]her head
[Am]So quietly she [Bm]lays and waits for sleep
[Esus4]
[Em][C][Am]

[Verse 3]
[Esus4]
She stares at the ceiling [Em]and tries
not to [C]think[Am][Bm][Esus4]
And pictures the chain she's [Em]been
trying to link [C]again
[Am]But the feeling is [Bm]gone
And [Am]water can't cov[Bm]er
her [Em]memory[C]
And [Am]ashes can't an[Bm]swer her [Em]pain[C]
God [Am]give me [Bm]the power to take
[Em]breath from a [C]breeze
And call [Am]life from a cold [Bm]metal frame
[Esus4]

[Verse 4]
[D]
In with the [C]ashes
Or [Am]up with the smoke
from [C]the fire[Bm]
With wings up in [Asus4]heaven
Or [D]here, lying in [C]bed
[D]Palm of her hand to my [C]head
[D]Now and forever [Em]curled
In my [Bm]heart and the heart of the world

[Outro 1]
