Only When I Sleep Tab

Intro:  . . .  . . .  . . .  .  .

Verse 1:
.    .       . . .                  .    
You're only just a dreamboat, sailing in my head 
     .          . . .                  .
You swim my secret oceans of coral blue and red
      .            . . .                        . . .
Your smell is incense burning, your touch is silk and yet
                       . . .               . . .           (F#4 - )
It reaches through my skin, Moving from within, it clutches at my breast

Chorus:
                      . . .              D7b11 . . .
But it's only when I sleep, I see you in my dreams, 
                 . . .                  .    .
Got me spinning round and round, turning upside down
                     . . .                D7b11 . . .
But I only hear you breathe, somewhere in my sleep, 
                 . . .                  .    .
Got me spinning round and round, turning upside down
                      . . . D7b11 . . .  . . .  .  .
But it's only when I sleep

Verse 2:
 .  .            . . .                           .    
And   when I wake from slumber, your shadow's dis - ap - peared
      .            . . .                      .    
Your breath is just a sea mist surrounding my bo - dy
     .               . . .                       . . .
I'm working through the daytime but when it's time to rest
                 . . .              . . .              (F#4 - )
I'm lying in my bed, listening to my breath, falling from the edge
