How Do You Sleep
The Stone Roses

Key:
E D I've seen your severed headA At a banquet for the deadE D All are dressed up for dinnerA Looked so fineE D Your shining silver serviceA So tasteful it powderedE D A With the finest military quick wine Now try and picture this As I gave you a kiss The apple in your mouth slipped in mine The orchestra played the sweetest serenade We laughed as we put away your wineB So raise your glasses, here's aA E toast to wasted livesA E May all their ghosts come back toB haunt youContinues after the adA B And tell you how they diedE How do you sleep How do you last the nightA B And keep the dogs at bayE How do you feel when you close your eyesA B And try and drift awayE A Does it feel any better nowE B Does it mean any moreE A When the angel of death comesB A Knock- knocking and banging atE your door When all the fun was over I put you on my shoulder Took you home away from it all Shot down and claimed, mounted and framed Tastefully hung upon my wallB All my dreams, your nightmaresA E I hope they all come trueA E B Get off your knees the party's overA B I'm coming home to you repeat chorus twice more -thanks to people on the net for the lyrics -John SpencerE|------------------------|Please mail any comments or corrections to jcspence@electrical.watstar.uwaterloo.caE|------------------------|E|----- E|-------------------|E|------------ E|------------|------John Spencer
