            Sleeping Sickness by City And Colour


Intro Em - C - G - G/F# - Em - C - G

Verse

G/F#  Em         C        G              G/F#        Em
I awoke only to find my lungs empty and through the night
        C          G              G/F#  Em
so it seems I'm not breathing and now my dreams
             C              G
are nothing like they were meant to be
         G/F#     Em            C          G
and I'm breaking down, i think I'm breaking down
   G/F#    Em               C             G
and I'm afraid to sleep because of what haunts me
G/F#   Em         C         G
 such as living with the uncertainty
  G/F#     Em                      C
that I'll never find the words to say
           G               G/F# Em            C          G  G/F#**
which would completely explain,   just how I'm breaking down


Chorus
GM             Em               C
someone come, someone come and save my life
             GM             Em
maybe I'll sleep when I am dead
                       C
but now it's like the night is taking sides
    GM             Em                C
and all the worries that occupy the back of my mind
          GM         Em          C
could it be this misery will suffice?

Em - C - G - G/F# - Em - C - G

G/F#    Em               C      G                  G/F#       Em
I've become a simple souvenir of someone's kill and like the sea
                C        G               G/F#
I'm constantly changing from calm to ill
  Em                         C
madness fills my heart and soul
     G                           G/F#      Em
as if the great divide could swallow me whole
            C         G    G/F#**
oh how I'm breaking down



Chorus
GM             Em               C
someone come, someone come and save my life
             GM             Em
maybe I'll sleep when I am dead
                       C
but now it's like the night is taking sides
    GM             Em                C
and all the worries that occupy the back of my mind
          GM         Em          C
could it be this misery will suffice?
