F A Dm
Oh sleep please come to me
Gm F C
Its a quarter after Three
Gm Bb F Dm
I've been here since One, I'm not having any fun
F A Dm
Won't you ease this misery
F A Dm
There are things I gotta do

Oh tomorrow before noon

If you don't make haste, the morning I will waste

Trying to get caught up to you

Cause it's getting closer to Five
Gm Bb F Dm
Well I thought I might have sensed you round and round
F A Dm
But I guess my senses 'lied'
F A Dm
So still I lie here tucked and tied
Gm F C
In the cool, pale, blue moonlight
Gm Bb F Dm
With my lover's breath and the thoughts that fill my head
F A Dm
Instead of sweet, sweet dreams tonight
F A Dm
Instead of sweet, sweet dreams tonight
F A G Dm C Dm
Instead of sweet, sweet dreams tonight
