Verse 1: Am One faithful night I was driving around town F It was late, I was tired and feeling down Dm I like to drive to take my mind off all the stuff B E That stresses me out and that keeps me up Am And sometimes when I'm driving I put two and two together F I'd read the email earlier that day but thought, "no never" Dm Surely it couldn't be, surely this wasn't true B E The person who betrayed me, who stole it all, was you
Pre-Chorus: Am F I took my knife and I held it right in front of him Dm E To teach him a lesson in suffering Chorus: A And now he sleeps (he sleeps) With one eye open (God knows) F#m Oh God knows I told him D I guess he thought that I was joking E But now his face is broken (I'm not) A I'm not the kind of girl that F#m Would normally worry that D Cut it out so I could show him E Now he sleeping with one eye open Verse 2: Am Let me back this up, I can explain F I forgot to mention I've been driving in the rain Dm I was in shock, a sort of catatonic state B E But I tried to speak, I tried to breathe, I couldn't break Am The car it flipped, I flew into a ditch F It was in the hospital I first got the edge Dm I was laying in my blood soaked clothes when I knew what to do B E Almost dying, it made me want to hurt you Pre-Chorus: Am F I took my knife and I held it right in front of him Dm E To teach him a lesson in suffering Chorus: A And now he sleeps (he sleeps) With one eye open (God knows) F#m Oh God knows I told him D I guess he thought that I was joking E But now his face is broken (I'm not) A I'm not the kind of girl that F#m Would normally worry that D Cut it out so I could show him E Now he sleeping with one eye open A That's what he's got now, one eye open F#m Ooh, one eye open D That's what he's got now, one eye open E One eye open Bridge: (strum each chord once) Am I kept it as a souvenir F So you can see I'm always here Dm I wear it like a locket around my neck B E It's watching out for me so I never forget Chorus: A And now he sleeps (he sleeps) With one eye open (God knows) F#m Oh God knows I told him D I guess he thought that I was joking E But now his face is broken (I'm not) A I'm not the kind of girl that F#m Would normally worry that D Cut it out so I could show him E Now he sleeping with one eye open A That's what he's got now, one eye open F#m Ooh, one eye open D That's what he's got now, one eye open E
