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

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


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


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


🎸 Bridge:
Em  G  Cmaj7
Em  G  Cmaj7

Em             G                 Cmaj7
   The river's up, the reeds are caught
Em          G                Cmaj7
   Halfway across what never was
Em           G                Cmaj7
   The water rose and swept in slow
Em                 G                     Cmaj7
   When the reeds awoke they were half below

Em  G  Cmaj7
(repeat x4 quietly then x4 loudly)
