Chorus:
Dm
Sleep baby sleep
              F
What are you waiting for
     C
The morning's on its way
              Am
You know it's only just a dream
   Dm
Oh sleep baby sleep
       F
I lie next to you
     C                               Am
The beauty of this mess is that it brings me
close to you

Dm                             F
I could be the one to give you all I am
        C                  Am
With a gentle touch and a foolish love
Dm                                     F
You could be the one to carry all my troubles away
          C                    Am
With the words you say, all I need to hear so

Chorus

Ignorance is torture but your love is right
Tip to tip a gentleman of the night
You feed my fascination with your skin like silk
And I'm still filled with wonder you could
fool me easily so

Chorus

F       Am        F              Am
So lay here and press up next to me
                  G   Em            G Am
Cause we'll be alright, we'll be alright
F            Am                F
But when we leave I know it's hard
           Am                          Dm
Cause it's all we know but we'll be alright,
                C
we'll be alright right

Chorus
