Verse 1:
Em
  I lay down for the night
Am
  and rest my weary eyes
B
hoping tonight that 
            Em
things might  change
Em
  but in this darkness my
Am
  thoughts start to multiply
    B                    Em
and sanity slowly slips away


Refrain:
           Am
and as the sun starts creeping
            D      Em
through the cracks between
              Am       
the shades it calls me out to
       B
battle through another day


Chorus 1:
    Em
And I just need one more
C                     G
hour to sleep sweet relief
                      B
from the demons in my mind
  Em
I toss and turn but still 
C
nothing seems to rule
           G
Can't turn off these nervous 
thoughts and though 
    B
I'm shutting my mind's

Post Chorus: Guitar Solo
Em--C--G--B--


Verse 2:
Em
  I peel my body up
Am
   and pour myself a cup
B
Go through the motions
       Em
of the day
Em
  And try to figure 
   Am
out  a way to 
              B
reconcile the two sides
                 Em
at war inside of me


(Repeat Refrrain)
(Repeat Chorus 1)


Bridge:
G
  As seconds 
           C
turns to minutes
and hours into 
Em
days. My thoughts
     C
evaporate into the 
G/B
haze of real
     Am       D
life dreams I need 
            C
to clear my mind
   G/B  Am
of everything so that
G     D/F#      F(hold)
I can get some sleep


Interlude: Em--C--G--B--


Chorus 2:
    Em
And I just need one more
C                     G
hour to sleep sweet relief
                      B
from the demons in my mind
  Em
I toss and turn but still 
C
nothing seems to rule
           G
Can't turn off these nervous 
thoughts and though

I'm shutting my mind's
