Lion Skin

Intro: Em C Em D Em Em I wonder, can you daydream at night? C D Lying awake, I've had too much time. Em I'm watching picture shows in the shadows C Dance for the crowd tonight. D C Imagination is such a vivid place to hide, D While stars watch over you. Em Through silent homes D The lights are out but I walk these halls, C The way I've walked before, D Em Sleeping, with saints and apparitions between the walls. D The lights are out but I walk these halls, C D Em I promised not to wake you, so I'll walk light, just so you can hear, C The rats in the roof and termites in the ceiling. D Em We'll hear everything except what we need to hear. C Sleeplessness is for the restless, and I'm just fine, D C D Left to wander, aimless in unconsciousness. Em D C There's spiders crawling from the corners of my eyes. D Em Let them weave their little webs to snatch the sunlight from the lens. D C I'm staring at the ceiling 'cause I'm fed up with the sight. D C Weigh my eyelids back to sleep, sealed by silken silver threads, D While stars watch over you. Em Through silent homes D The lights are out but I walk these halls, C The way I've walked before, D Em Sleeping, with saints and apparitions between the walls. D The lights are out but I walk these halls, C D Cast the sheep out of your mind, Em Count the wolves and we'll sleep tonight. Em D C I stumble in and I stumble out of unfamiliar rooms in foreign houses, D But I'm at home, Em D Now a ghost that has left behind his sheets, C D C Unrequited, until I wake up somewhere I know that I've never been. D Em I'll stay 'til sleep takes over you. D C I'll stay 'til sleep takes over you. D Em And I'll walk while stars watch over you. D C And I'll walk while stars watch over you. Em Through silent homes D The lights are out but I walk these halls, C The way I've walked before, D Em Sleeping, with saints and apparitions between the walls. D The lights are out but I walk these halls, C The way I've walked before, D Em Sleeping, with saints and apparitions between the walls. D The lights are out but I walk these halls, C D Cast the sheep out of your mind, C Count the wolves and we'll sleep tonight.
