D        G                 Em
They say you watch the sun go down
D        G                 Em
The same old shadows crawl over town
F              C      G     D
Those thoughts of you it shivers me
G/B G/D  G     C    G      D  Em
The moon grows cold in memory baby!

Chorus:
Baby you better get some sleep tonight
all you gotta to do is close your eyes
you better get some sleep tonight

I wish you baby all the best
if you turn out like all the rest
this darkness baby it's chilling me
stars stare down in sympathy baby!

Chorus

They robbed you of your diginity
they even stal you heart from me
it ain't revenge you understand
I just wanna know who dealt this hand baby!

Chorus
