Close Your Eyes

[Intro]
D A Bm A

[Verse 1]
D                                A
I had a feeling, you couldn't be found
                               Bm
I was tired and getting struck down
                          G
I never saw you coming my way
    D              A
I'm so, I'm so distracted
     Bm                             G
Infatuated and now I see you running away


[Pre-Chorus]
          Bm
Well it's all I know
     A
It's all I know


[Chorus]
             G
Remember the fine night air
         Bm
Didn't I show I cared?
  D        A
I do, oh I do
             G
Remember the white nights there
         Bm
Didn't I show I cared?
  D        A
I do, oh I do


[Verse 2]
      D                                             A
And I know, you're angered about the stories you're told
                  Bm
They blackened my name
                                G
It doesn't make a difference at all
   D                             A
So stay, if only I can try to explain
                   Bm                             G
Then we'll have it all and might stop slipping away


[Pre-Chorus]
         Bm
But it's all I know
     A
It's all I know


[Chorus]
             G
Remember the fine night air
         Bm
Didn't I show I cared?
  D        A
I do, oh I do
             G
Remember the white knight stare
         Bm
Didn't I show I cared?
  D        A
I do, oh I do


[Bridge]
Bm            G               D
Wishes like a cold wind on my face
Bm             G             D
Wishes I could warm a frozen lake
Bm             G            A
Oh wishes, I'm wishing you away
     G                                     Bm
It's late, the light flickers off from the rain
         A             G
And it's stained on my heart
                          Bm
I wonder, do you feel the same
       A          D
As you did at the start?


[Chorus]
             G
Remember the fine night air
         Bm
Didn't I show I cared?
  D        A
I do, oh I do
             G
Remember the white nights there
         Bm
Didn't I show I cared?
  D        A
I do, oh I do


[Outro]
Bm            G               D
Wishes like a cold wind on my face
Bm             G             D
Wishes I could warm a frozen lake
Bm             G            A
Oh wishes, I'm wishing you away

[Verse 1]
G
Sleep is a rose
           Bm                         C
But I only hear the gale wind blowing cold
Cm         G
Against my windows
                             Bm
As I fold then I curl my leg around yours in a hold
         C            Cm                G
I said, "darling, I'm scared of growing old"
    Em           Bm
I'm sorry if I'm loud
         Em                  Bm
I'm just worrying about that now

[Pre-Chorus]
             C
'Cause I lay here
              Cm          G
I'm still waiting for the sun

[Chorus]
             Am
And you said sleep is a rose
            C                          G         D
But I wanna tell you it only brings me fear
             Am
And you said sleep is a rose
            C                          G
But I wanna tell you it only brings me fear

[Verse 2]
                       Bm
I started to listen to every little sound
       C           Cm              G
And so how am I supposed to forget silence?
                            Bm
As I fold and I curl my own hand around yours in a hold
           C             Cm              G 
You said, "my love, I'll take you to the fairground"
  Em              Bm
I know you're not around
       Em                   Bm
You're sleeping and talking now
 

[Pre-Chorus]
                     C
And I'm still laying here
     Cm              G
Just waiting for the sun

[Chorus]
            Am
And you said sleep is a rose
            C                          G         D
But I wanna tell you it only brings me fear
             Am
And you said sleep is a rose
            C                          G
But I wanna tell you it only brings me fear

[Bridge]
               Bm              C                      G       D
And you said, "boy, you better know that you got this love"
               Bm              C                      G       D
And you said, "boy, you better know that you got this love"

[Chorus]


            Am
And you said sleep is a rose
            C                          G         D
But I wanna tell you it only brings me fear

Sleep Is A Rose

Am
We've come, no matter how far
F
We've come, too frightened to carry on
G                           Dm
But imagine those deep blue skies waiting on
Am
No matter what time it takes
F
We'll run away to the lakes
G                       Dm
And summer will find us there waiting

We can see through the shadows
C                          G
With lights to be where we belong

Am
We can be safe in our own little place
F
Where the skyline kiss the shore
G                                Dm
We will go on, we will go on and on

We feel alive in the waters with divers

The night fire warms our bones

We will go all, we will go on and on

Am
My love, there's nothing else we can do
F
And I still have faith in you
G                           Dm
The stars will come out and guide us
F
Then we can see through the shadows
C                          G
With lights to be where we belong

Am
We can be safe in our own little place

Where the skyline kiss the shore

The night fire warms our bones

Stay close, hold on to me
G
By the lakes

Dm C F Am   G F Am G x2

Am
We can be safe in our own little place

Where the skyline kiss the shore

Verse 1:
           B
I'm going back to the time when we owned this town
      E
Down Powder Mill Lane, in the battlegrounds
C#m        B                   G#m  B     F#
We were friends and lovers and clueless clowns


Verse 2:
                      B       
I didn't know I'd be finding out now I was torn from you
         E
When we thought about things we were gonna do
C#m      B                    G#m B  F# 
We were wide eyed dreamers and wiser too


Chorus:
               E              B 
Go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café


Verse 3:
                          B
I'm begging you for some sign, but you've still got nothing to say
        E
Don't turn your back on me, don't walk away
C#m     B                   G#m  B   F#
I'm a better man now than I was that day


Chorus:
                      E              B 
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                 E               B
Go down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                      E                     G#m   F#     
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café


Bridge:
   E        B           F#
I wheel my bike off the train,
        F#
Up the North Trade Road,
 E        B             F# 
Look for you on Marley Lane
                          G#m
In every building, every streetlight
                   E               F#  G#m  B  F#
Oh why did we ever go so far from home?


Verse 4:
                        B
You keep on leaving me mile long traces of who you are
         E
You can get a big house and a faster car
C#m      B                    G#m   B  F#
You can run away boy, but you won't go far


Chorus:
                      E              B
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                    E                B
Stroll down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                     E                      G#m   F#
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café 

      E            B    G#m
La la la la la la la la Yeah, 
     F#                      E       B   F#
I'm going where the people know my name

and everyone's your enemy
A                                        E
when you wish you were someone else
                 D                        A
and you wanna go out and kill yourself

E D                 A

ooh you're overreacting

(take your time)


A                       E
when you get yourself depressed
                      D                   A
because you think you can't do your best
A                                         E
when you write yourself a stupid song
           D                        A
to remind yourself that you forgot

[chorus]

E D                 A

Overreacting

G Bm Em A
Well everybody's lookin' for something they can't find,
Walking straight ahead blind-folded production line,
Only taking time for one type of shoe-shine.
Don't look left/right now you got a street fine.
Everybody lookin' for just a little more.
Working late-nights trying to fight off the day glow.
Waiting for the come-around but it is a no show.
Driving in the fast lane lookin' for the slow-mo...

C D A
Oh whats in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know well I don't know man anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time you,
Where were you, you weren't listenin', gonna be a long time
Gonna be a long time.

G Bm Em A
So now you're face down, face lookin like a frying pan.
Hitting up the clubs trying to feel like a real man.
Beating your chest just like you're King Kong but you're just a gui-tar no-string no-song.
Feeling free like ya don't even know it, man you're towing the line hoping you just don't blow it.
Man ya stuck in the mainframe trying to win the big game so much potential it even makes it more of a shame, shame, shame...
Here we go again, same old shit just another name.
Looking at the destiny there in your palm,
But now you got your strings but you got no song.
So sing, sing, sing - shake it like a chicken wing.
It's not what you get it's about what you bring-bring-bring.
So bring it, bring it to the table, not because you have to 'cos you're willing and you're able!

C D A
Oh what's in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know, I don't know anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time.
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time.
You, where were you, you weren't listening, gonna be a long time.
Gonna be a long time.

Gonna Be A Long Time

It takes a while to get used to the rhythm. In the verse the
time signature goes 3/4 for 2 bars then 2/4 for 1 bar and then
repeats.
