#1.
D MajorD    Am7Am7    D MajorD     Am7Am7
Sheeeeee looked at me and the emptiness in her
D MajorD    Am7Am7   D MajorD
eyes was cruel to see.
     G+G        D MajorD      G+G
Then she turned away and said, once I loved,
      D MajorD
but love is dead.
   C majorC                 D MajorD
And I whispered, sometimes love is only sleeping.

#2.
D MajorD      G+G   D MajorD            G+G
She said, I cannot cry and I cannot give or feel
    D MajorD
or even try.
    G+G         D MajorD       G+G
And her voice was hard and cold, then her sweet
         D MajorD
young face looked old.
   C majorC                 D MajorD
And I whispered, sometimes love is only sleeping.

BRIDGE:
D MajorD
Through the endless days and nights, could not help
          D MajorD DmDm
but wrap herself in sorrow (sorrow.)
G+G                    C majorC   G+G
Through the endless days and nights she waited for
      D MajorD DmDm
a shiny new tomorrow (tomorrow.)
     C majorC     D MajorD
Love was sleeping, sleeping.


INTERLUDE: D MajorD C majorC B minorBm A augmentedA D MajorD (x2)

#3.
D MajorD   Am7Am7    D MajorD               Am7Am7
Sheeee looked at me and her smiling tears were warm and
     D MajorD
sweet and free.
D MajorD    G+G          D MajorD     G+G
And the moonlight kissed her eyes as it mingled with
  D MajorD
our sighs.
    C majorC                 D MajorD
And she whispered, sometimes love is only sleeping.

OUTRO:
    C majorC                 D MajorD
