🎸 Verse 1:
N.C.               C/GC/G  D MajorD  C/GC/G  D MajorD
I've been asleep for a long, long time
C/GC/G                  C/GC/G  D MajorD
Blond hair to brown and then brown to white
C/GC/G            C/GC/G  D MajorD
My mom is buried beside my dad
  C/GC/G           C/GC/G  D MajorD
But I was asleep for all of that

🎸 Chorus 1:
E minorEm    G+G  C majorC
  I shut my eyes for a moment's rest
E minorEm      G+G  C majorC
  Cause I get so tired
E minorEm      G+G   C majorC
  What things transpired while my body slept
E minorEm     G+G  C majorC
  To beset my mind?


🎸 Verse 2:
  N.C.                 C/GC/G  D MajorD  C/GC/G  D MajorD
The schools that we went to have all been closed
  C/GC/G               C/GC/G  D MajorD
And all of my teachers are dead I suppose
  C/GC/G               C/GC/G  D MajorD
The songs that we sung have all gone quiet
   C/GC/G              C/GC/G  D MajorD
What happens below as we sleep at night?


🎸 Chorus 2:
E minorEm    G+G  C majorC
  I shut my eyes for a moment's rest
E minorEm      G+G C majorC
  Cause I get so tired
E minorEm      G+G   C majorC
  What things transpired while my body slept
E minorEm     G+G  C majorC
  To beset my mind?

🎸 Bridge:
E minorEm G+G Cmaj7Cmaj7
E minorEm G+G Cmaj7Cmaj7

E minorEm       G+G         Cmaj7Cmaj7
  The river's up, the reeds are caught
E minorEm     G+G        Cmaj7Cmaj7
  Halfway across what never was
E minorEm      G+G        Cmaj7Cmaj7
  The water rose and swept in slow
E minorEm         G+G           Cmaj7Cmaj7
  When the reeds awoke they were half below

E minorEm G+G Cmaj7Cmaj7
(repeat x4 quietly then x4 loudly)
