Sleep Song

F    G            Bb      C
Somewhere by the water's edge
F   G              Bb     C
I found out what nearby meant
F     G              Bb      C
Somewhere off the railroad tracks
F     G            Bb       C
I learned how to drink the line


F                        G
We threw it all in the train
                             Bb
And hit the the pipe in the back
                      C
Vanilla lingers from Captain and the name it stays
F                         G
The others thought I was sick
                       Bb
I stumbled out in the dark
                      C
And then I found corruption and it hurt my heart


F  G  Bb  C  x2


F    G         Bb         C
Lady span the seas with grace
F        G       Bb     C
And keep us feeling full
F         G             Bb        C
The cabins that would house our games
F      G        Bb    C
Were quiet when I came


Continues after the ad
F                         G
Let's take a run to the horse
                            Bb
And then we'll smoke some tabac
                    C
I see a couple of portraits

And the name it stays

F                G
A little island away
                         Bb
Is where I gathered my leaves
                     C
And then I found corruption

And the name it stays

F                        G
We threw it all in the train
                             Bb
And hit the the pipe in the back
                      C
Vanilla lingers from Captain

And the name it stays

F  G  Bb  C x1

Bb  C  x4  (move up to the 6th fret and 8th fret barre chords respectively)

Bb                    C
Fire and ashes in a wooden place
           Bb                     C
Where the boats are for staking claims
Bb                        C
Guns and stories for the weak at heart
        Bb                   C
And a guitar that you can't play

      Bb                     C
The tunes grow old and the dead won't die
             Bb             C
We've got marriage on our minds
    Bb                   C
I write my name on the cabin wall
            Bb              C
And its christened with my lies

F                        G
We threw it all in the train
                             Bb
And hit the the pipe in the back
                      C
Vanilla lingers from Captain and the name it stays
F                         G
The others thought I was sick
                       Bb
I stumbled out in the dark
                      C
And then I found corruption and it hurt my heart
F                        G
We threw it all in the train
                             Bb
And hit the the pipe in the back
                      C
Vanilla lingers from Captain and the name it stays
