C
The cars pass by outside
F
From one sign to the next
Am F
She tries to listen, tries to care,
Pretending he knows best
C
She's afraid of what she's done
F
Not knowing what it is,
Am F
She prays for something, prays for his sins,
Someday she'll find rest
Am
But the time is never right,
G
No it's never right,
C F
To step outside her life
Am G
To find what's been lost
She'll sleep on it tonight
(Intro)
C
A voice she left behind,
F
Tells her that there's time
Am F
She bears the burden, blames her own sin
Hopes she'll change her mind
C
The pain that never hides,
F
A reflection from inside
Am F
She conceals the message, buries her head,
Tells herself she's fine
Am
But her eyes, they say goodbye
G
No, they never lie
C F
The windows to her life
Am G
To find, what's been lost,
She'll sleep on it tonight
C C G Am F
Oh, She'll sleep on it tonight
C G Am F
C G Am F
Oh, She'll sleep on it tonight
C G Am F
C G Am F
She feels alive without a reason
C G Am F
Love, pain, tonight, she finally listens
C G Am F
She comes alive, without a reason
C G Am F
Love, faith, tonight, she finally listens
