Standard

[Intro]
G  Am  D  G


[Verse]
                               G
I know I’ve seen your face somewhere
                        Am
Selling something, some big idea
                             D
I know I’ve seen that vacant stare
                    G
Selling sunsets for somebody else

                             G
You find yourself asking yourself
                  Am
What is any of it worth?
                          D
You find yourself looking up at night
                       G
From the bottom of the earth


[Chorus]
Am               D                   G    Bm      Em
And oh, can this world not afford to sleep anymore
    Am            D
And oh, did your sheep start jumping
     Bm
They grow out their teeth
         Em                      Am         D
Did they need a little something more, than this?


[Verse]
                             G
The taste of trouble on your lips
                                Am
‘Cause now there bitin’ at your thoughts
                          D
You tell yourself just to turn away
                            G
But you know you’ve already lost

                            G
The smell of rain when it’s on a wind
                      Am
Will never be paid in full
                     D
You try in vain to account for this mess
                        G
And everything that you stole


[Chorus]
Am               D                   G    Bm      Em
And oh, can this world not afford to sleep anymore
    Am           D
And oh, did your sheep start jumping
     Bm
They grow out their teeth
         Em                      Am         D
Did they need a little something more, than this?


[Verse]
                                  G
‘Cause now they’re bitin’ at your feet
                               Am
They got you running from this place
                                    D
And now they’re breathing down your neck
                             G
Your eyes look lonely in your face

                       G
I see you looking just out of frame
                       Am
What is it pulling you there?
                                     D
‘Cause things can never the stay the same
                       G
So what is keeping you here?


[Chorus]
Am               D                   G    Bm      Em
And oh, can this world not afford to sleep anymore
    Am           D
And oh, did your sheep start jumping
     Bm
They grow out their teeth
    Em
And need a little something now

Am                                   D
Every time you think, well they’d be biting at your thoughts
    Bm
And every time you blink
               Em
Well you’ll be so damn far
             Am         D
But you want more, than this


[Outro]
                               G
I know I’ve seen your face somewhere
