Wait For Sleep

Intro

(Em - C - Am – D)x2 

Em 
Standing by the window 
C             Am 
Eyes upon the moon 
Em                      C                     Am     D 
Hoping that the memory will leave her spirit soon 
Am                        D 
She shuts the doors and lights 
            Em            C 
And lays her body on the bed 
Am                 D                Em    C 
Where images and words are running deep 
Am                 D               Em                C 
She has too much pride to pull the sheets above her head 
Am              D                  Em   
So quietly she lays and waits for sleep

Em - C - Am – D 

Em                                           C       Am 
She stares at the ceiling and tries not to think 
Em                                           C 
And pictures the chain She's been trying to link again 
         Am           D 
But the feeling is gone 
Am               D         Em   C 
And water can't cover her memory 
Am               D          Em   C 
And ashes can't answer her pain 
Am                D            Em             C 
God give me the power to take breath from a breeze 
Am                     D         Em 
And call life from a cold metal frame 
D            Am 
In with the ashes 
D                             C 
Or up with the smoke from the fire 
D                Am 
With wings up in heaven 
D                 C 
Or here, lying in bed 
D                      Am 
Palm of her hand to my head 
D                C             D 
Now and forever curled in my heart 
                       C 
And the heart of the world
