Intro: Em Bm
(Em) We slept in this room together but (Bm) now you're gone
(Em) It's so quiet I turn the (Bm) TV on
(Em) We lived in this room together, we (Bm) painted the walls
Now (Am) time doesn't stand still, it (Bm) crawls
And (C) I'm (D) afraid to (Bm) sleep
Cause (D) if I do I'll (Am) dream of you
And (D) dreams are always (Em) deep
On the (Am) pillow (D) where I (Em) weep
(Em) I never realized how much I was in (Bm) love with you
(Em) Until you started sleeping with (Bm) someone new
(Em) Last night I dreamed again and (Bm) you were there
(Am) You kissed my face, (Bm) you touched my hair
And (C) I'm (D) afraid to (Bm) sleep
Cause (D) if I do I'll (Am) dream of you
And (D) dreams are always (Em) deep
On the (Am) pillow (D) where I (Em) weep
(Am) Lying alone in the darkness
With a (Em) memory in my head
(C) There's a big hole where my heart is
And a (Am) lonely feeling (D) rolling round my (Em) head
And (C) I'm (D) afraid to (Bm) sleep
Cause (D) if I do I'll (Am) dream of you
And (C) I'm (D) afraid to (Bm) sleep
Cause (D) if I do I'll (Am) dream of you
And (D) dreams are always (Em) deep
On the (Am) pillow (D) where I (Em) weep
On the (Am) pillow (D) where I (Em) weep
(Em) I'm afraid to sleep
