Sleeping Alone chords by Flatland Cavalry

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Intro:
We’re rolling

Alrighty


Verse 1:
Bb               Gm
Counting constellations on the popcorn ceiling
Eb                 Bb
And staring at your picture on the wall
Bb                Gm
Rays of lonely moonlight slowly slice through the blinds
Eb          Bb
As the tears begin to fall

Chorus:
Eb          Bb
I’m tired of sleeping alone
Eb            Bb
I just wanna be where you are
 Eb                  Bb
Tired of saying goodnight through the phone
 Eb                Bb
And wakin' up each morning in the dark
 Bb
Better say a prayer
 F
Turn out the light
 Gm       Eb
Sigh and hug my pillow tight

I’ll be with you soon my dear
        Bb
If only in my dreams


Instrumental:
Bb Gm Eb Bb


Verse 2:
 Bb              Gm
Who I am trying to fool, baby? I’m the one to blame
 Eb            Bb
For the forces keeping us apart
 Bb
I’m stubborn and I’m bold
                Gm
And work's got me in a stranglehold
    Eb            Bb
Keepin' a vice around my heart
Gm         F         Eb
Indifference over distance don’t fare well
  Gm       F
Maybe a goodnight kiss from you
 Eb           Bb
Could break me from my spell


Chorus:
 Eb              Bb
'Cause I’m tired of sleeping alone
Eb             Bb
I just wanna be where you are
 Eb                  Bb
Tired of saying goodnight through the phone
 Eb                Bb
And wakin' up each morning in the dark
 Bb
Better say a prayer
 F
Turn out the light
 Gm       Eb
Sigh and hug my pillow tight

I’ll be with you soon my dear
        Bb
If only in my dreams


Instrumental:
Bb Gm Eb Bb x2



Bridge:
F  Gm    Eb   Bb
  Ah, here we go again
 Gm   Eb   Bb
Off to never never-land


Outro:
 Bb
Better say a prayer
 F
Turn out the light
 Gm       Eb
Sigh and hug my pillow tight

I’ll be with you soon my dear
        Bb
If only in my dreams
 Bb
Better say a prayer
 F
Turn out the light
Gm        Eb
Sigh and hug my pillow tight

I’ll be with you soon tonight
        Bb
If only in my dreams
