Lazlo Bane - Sleep

Intro:

Em Ebaug G C#dim C C#dim C C#dim

Look into the yard

Ebaug G C#dim

All the flowers find it hard to climb

See, the weeds have won

Then it finds me in the clear

The worst of days has got the best of me

So lay me down to sleep

G C#dim

And pray my soul to keep me

C C#dim

Moving on

C C#dim

When I'm gone

You take me in

Ebaug G C#dim

With the color of my skin turned gray

Doctor, will you let us know

We'll bring him home for surgery

With a tweezer and a match

Whisper over me

Ebaug G C#dim

I can rest in peace of mind

My eyes are wide

Ebaug G C#dim

But still dark inside this time

I have it all

In front of me

Such a simple world

C#dim

I could never see

But you gave it all

C#dim

For just one day

I found a reason to live

C#dim

And pass away

So lay me down to sleep

G C#dim

And pray my soul to keep me
