C                          Em
I, I, I, I, I want to love you
                C                Em
But if it's not right what can I do?
D     C            G
Everything will be alright
   D    C                G
So baby get some sleep tonight


[Verse 1]

G
Uh, I wish we could just pretend to be
D                             C
Like we always were before as happy as the Kennedy's
G
No one told Jackie about Marilyn's tendencies
D                              C
Ignorance is bliss when you're married half a century
G
Life is too short, trying to hold it all together
D                                  C
It's gone before you know it but tonight could last forever
G
I wrote it out on paper but forgot to mail the letter
D                                     C
And you could walk away but you won't find nothing better
G
It's whatever, I just hope that you remember
C
Then I said some shit that upset her
Em
Arguing in public, talking loud as Big sweater
C
She said, "You're always gone."

I said, "'The fuck do you expect from me?"
Em
Then she look at me and she said to me


[Hook]

C                          Em
I, I, I, I, I want to love you
                C                Em
But if it's not right what can I do?
D     C            G
Everything will be alright
   D    C                G
So baby get some sleep tonight


[Verse 2]

G
Uh, maybe in some other lifetime
D                                   C
Or somewhere down the road we might meet up at the right time
G
Girls come with the profession when you write rhymes
D                               C
Caught me and she told me I'm a pig like I fight crime
G
Well, maybe G is just an asshole
D                            C
Fuck around with bitches alphalpha, little rascal
G
I swear my intentions aren't as evil as you think
D                               C
But temptation's always pushing people to the brink
G
Fuck, I always lose my judgement when I drink
C
My only wish is you would settle down and hear me out
Em
I know I haven't been completely honest and devout
C
It's difficult for me, these girls try to seek me out
Em
I try to talk it out but this is all she speak about

She said

C                          Em

                C                Em

Everything will be alright
   D    C                G
So baby get some sleep tonight


[Verse 3]

C
Uh, so if tonight turns out to be
Em
The last night before you peaced then walked out on me
C
Let's let it all hang out like a balcony
Em
One last time, the best is what you about to see
C                            Em
So make it worth it tonight, only so you know I never hurt you in spite
C
Love me like you never will again, it's our last time
Em
Tonight forget about the pastime
D    C             G
Everything will be alright
   D    C                G
So baby get some sleep tonight
