If Only Tonight We Could Sleep

Tuning:Standard

A Ab

If only tonight we could sleep

G Cm

In a bed made of flowers

A Ab

If only tonight we could fall

G Cm

In a deathless spell

A Ab

If only tonight we could slide

G Cm

Into deep black water

And breathe

Ab G Cm

And breathe...

Then an angel would come

With burning eyes like stars

And bury us deep

In his velvet arms

A Ab

And the rain would cry

G Cm

As our faces slipped away

A Ab

And the rain would cry

G Cm

Don't let it end...
