D A E
She comes to me at night when I'm sleeping
She comes to me when I'm alone
She comes to me, she holds my hand when I'm crying
She comes to me, she shuts my eyes
She brings me home
E5 A E5
But I'm not sleeping anymore, anymore
But I'm not sleeping anymore, anymore
D A E
She tells me when you look at me, she tells me when you're lying
She tells me when you talk about me, she lays me on the floor
She tells me when you're whispering, she lies beside me naked
She tells me when you laugh at me and she locks all the doors
E5 A E5
But I'm not sleeping anymore, anymore
But I'm not sleeping anymore, anymore
E

AM, All alone again
D A
But I've been through all this shit before
E
Spend my nights in self defense
Emaj7
Cry about my innocence
D A
But I ain't all that innocent anymore, more, more

D A E
I see her on the TV, I see her in the movies
I see her in these animals that dance beside my bed
I'll follow you down baby, down into this valley
I'll follow you down baby, but I won't come up again
E5 A E5
But I'm not sleeping anymore, anymore
But I'm not sleeping anymore, anymore
E Emaj7 A
I'm not sleeping, I'm not sleeping, I'm not sleeping, no(etc.)
I'm not sleeping, I'm not sleeping, anymore, anymore, no, anymore, ah, ah
E
I said rain, rain go away
Emaj7
Come again some other day,
D
Cause I got all this shit to say
A
But I've gone back to find my way.
E
My sister's mother's favorite son
Emaj7
Lost among the chosen ones,
D
But I've got news for everyone
A
Cause I've gone out that door
