Use fingerpicking with bass string on first beat, 3/4 measure
A(-) means: just the bass note, no picking
The instrumental needs work!

D5 D5
Go to sleep
             A5     A5
At least lie here awhile
G5       G5             D5        A5
Best to look straight through your eyelids
D5    D5  A5      A5
Count or listen to the voices
G5            G5       D5       A5 (-)
But don't go out and down to the landing

Give it time enough
A5              A5
I'll check the clock
    G5         G5       D5   A5
And you'll be still until I leave
     D5 D5   A5   A5
The living room is on
               G5          G5
and lights are blaring
D5     D5
With the TV

And you say
D5        (-)     A5            A5
Clap once for me and I'll know
D5  D5         A5         A5
I'l be watching on my pillow
D5           D5         A5    A5
Clap twice I'll see what you mean
D5  D5      A5            (-)
It was one for the other team
D5 D5             A5        A5
Go to sleep or at least keep the light off
     G5      G5       D5       A5
I'll see it shining through the cracks
D5   D5           A5
You may be missing some things
   A5                G5
But if you leave it open
   G5         D5           D9(-)
Some of them might come back
