A#m C# I spent these waking hours Looking for the sandman I spent these waking hours Looking for his master plan I’ll wait ‘til morning ‘til he comes to my house F And he’ll give no warning D#m When he’s knocking me out Chorus: F# A#m F# F So sing me to sleep tonight And don’t bring me back to life I spend these waking hours Looking for the sandman I spend these waking hours Looking for his master plan He will be sorry when he comes to my house I’ll show no mercy ‘til the lights go out Chorus: So sing me to sleep tonight And don’t bring me back to life We’re waiting for the sandman But he never hears the call We’re waiting for the sandman But he never hears the call We’re waiting for the sandman But he never hears the call We’re waiting for the sandman But he never hears the call You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA#m  C#  D#m  F  F#  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
