Sleeping Pills




 Em                              D                           Bm
The world hides like a smile behind your hand
 Em                              D                           Bm
I became hard and cold, your smile became quicksand
Am                       G            Em                              D
I don’t know what city I’m dialing your number from
Am                       G                 Em                         D
I don’t know if you’ll be there or if I’ll ever get home

C(running to G) 
C               C/B      Am*   G*                  D                            
I just took my                two sleeping pills
C                      C/B     Am*   G*                      D            Em
Now I’m like a bridegroom standing at the altar


Em                      D                  Bm
I’m not innocent but I’m bled dry
Em                              D                  Bm       
And I’m stuck wide awake with no dreams in my eyes
Am
Do your worst
    G                  Em                                      D
I’m sure that it couldn’t even scratch the crust
Am           G            Em               D
Of a case study of a life without trust

C(running to G)                        I just took my two sleeping pills
 Now I’m like a bridegroom standing at the altar

 Waiting to embrace my new life
with all the love in my heart
Waiting like a bridegroom standing at the altar

Am                              G                       Em  D
And everyday I meet more people that I’ll  forget
Am                              G                 
And everyday I become more like someone
Em                    D
that you should forget
C(running to G) 
I just took my two sleeping pills
Now I’m like a bridegroom standing at the altar
Waiting for you to slip your ring around my finger


The C running to G thing( as I call it... dunno what you call it)
         C      C/B  Am*   G*
E-----0-----0-----0------0
B-----1-----1-----1------1
G-----0-----0-----0------0
D-----2-----0-----2------2
A-----3-----2-----0------0
