Sing Me To Sleep Tab

by Showbread


It's pretty much just G, Em, C and D over and over again, but I wrote out the whole song 
Sorry if the lyrics are wrong or something like that.



Something keeps me awake

Something outside is stirring

Through the dark and over the grass

The rabbits and snakes are concurring
                                      
They sing in the soil and bones rattle loud

They cry out as this they do see

Someone in those walls is suffering proud

For you are worth every ache within me
                              
I don't hear music, don't hear anything
                   
I see dirt I see cement

What a troubled world it is when

You're outside arm's length
                                
It pulls out its teeth in dry irreverence
                        
Come and find me on this floor

I'm only a half truth betold

Take away all the distance and say
      
"My beloved now I'm here and now you are whole"
                                 
If I turn to see your eyes in the dark

I will know the blue in an instant

Never have they gone so far
         
Or never has your face been distant
                                          
My life I will give you like a verse and a ring

I will be your only one
                              
And what you ask of me will be yours until all is said and done
                               
Your heart's a song that I hear Jesus sing
                       
It comes over oceans to me
                                   
And the notes spell out messages in vibrant streams
                                
And what's written you show only me
                                        
But if you can't close up all the gaps tonight
                    
Put me to bed in your ways
                                  
You see right through everything I am

For you my insides are displayed
                             
Sing me to sleep my beautiful one
                           
I will love only you for all time
                        
Sing me to sleep my only one

With promises that you are all mine
                              
Be still my heart, I hear your back cracking
                       
It sounds like music to me
                         
I see your face and I can hardly breath
                            
It looks just like a song to me
