G                 Am                    Em
You will never know what's behind my skull
                         Em
So won't you say goodnight so I can say goodbye.
C7                 Em                Dsus4
You will never know what's under my hair
                         D
So won't you say goodnight so I can say goodbye.

You will never know what's under my skin
So won't you say goodnight, so I can say goodbye?
You will never know what is in my veins
So won't you say goodnight, so I can say goodbye?

Chorus:
G                Am
Won't you go to someone else's dreams
Em               Em
Won't you go to someone else's head
C7                 Em
Haven't you taken enough from me
Dsus4              D
Won't you torture someone else's sleep?

And you will never know what I'm thinking of
Won't you go to someone else's dreams?
So won't you say goodnight, so I can say goodbye
Won't you go to someone else's head?

And you will never understand what I believe
Haven't you taken enough from me?
So won't you say goodnight so I can say goodbye?
Won't you torture someone else?

Em                G
Haven't you taken enough from me
Am                 C
Won't you torture someone else's sleep?
Em               G
Won't you go to someone else's dreams
Am               C
Won't you go to someone else's head
Em                  G
Haven't you taken enough from me
Am                 C
Won't you torture someone else's sleep?

Em
I start to part two halves of my heart
in the dark and I
G
Don't know where I should go
And the tears and the fears begin to multiply
Am
Taking time in a simple place
In my bed where my head rests on a pillowcase
C
And it's said that a war's lead but I forget
That I let another day go by
Em
I want to be afraid but it seems that these days
I'm caught under water and I'm falling farther
G
My heart's getting harder, I'm calling my father
Am I screaming to an empty sky?
Am
Empty sky, no way, that's me
'cause one half of my heart is free
C
Empty sky, no way, that's me 'cause
the other half of my heart's asleep.
