When I Watch You Sleeping chords by Neil Young

Intro:
G Em C G D* C G

Verse:
G                Em       C                        G   D* C  G
When I watch you sleeping there's nothing that you hide
G                Em        C                        G     D*  C  G
When I smell you breathing there's a sweetness from inside
G                   Em       C                       G    D*  C  G
And when I feel you stirring and the day is about to break
G                 Em       C                       G    D*  C
Outside wings are worrying and the sky is there to take
C              G                                                Am
I wonder how I got so close to you and see the chances that you take
C                    G                                          D
Without thinking I'm going there too these are the promises you make
C                  G                                 D
When your eyes are blinded by love and the history a fate

Interlude:
G Em C G D* C G

Verse:
G               Em      C                    G  D* C G
When I hear you purring like a kitten and a lion
G               Em       C                      G     D* C G
And I feel your softness how you got it without trying
G                 Em     C                              G  D* C G
Then you roll and tumble with your dreams still holding on
G               Em            C              G    D* C
And I hear that rumble in the stomach of the dawn
C               G                              Am
Today I made my masterpiece tonight I trace my tears
C                   G                                            D
Thinking through my path to you and where I stumbled through the years

Chorus:
C               G                              Am
Today I made my masterpiece tonight I trace my tears
C                    G
Thinking through the road I took to you
                               D
and how I stumbled through the years
C                      G
That's when I knew I'd never hold you down
G                       D
Repeating old roads and fears

Verse:
G                 Em      C                              G  D* C  G
Now the crows are calling and the blackbirds sing in my ear
G               Em   C                            G    D* C  G
You got one eye open and I am smiling through my tears
G                Em       C                       G    D* C  G
But you'll never see them they're inside with my fears
G                 Em                     C       G
In a place that's fading away and taking on new years
