G                   B+
  Loosened from my pride
          C                    G
Oh that monster he kept me so tight
G                  B+
  I threw my aces down

Just to face the here and the now

Sleep ‘til I dream

Verse 2:
As cautious as a thief
Oh but restless with all of my needs
Now I stand before all I want
And all that I've adored

Sweet you sleep

Sleep ‘til I dream

And your love is what I’ve


Bridge: 
Am           C         G
   Long days, long nights
                                     C
Just blinded by what was already in sight
                 Am             C
Now I’ve found,     found my way home
                        (G, B+, C, G)
Yeah, I’ve found my way home

Chorus:
G
(Wo-ho-ho-ho-ho)
I’ve been looking

I’ve been staring down
G

I’ve been searching
