C
No,
   Dm               Am
My only goal is to see
         F           C
When I'm only fast asleep
         Dm                     Am
It takes more than strength to find
      F
This piece of mind

         G                         Am
So I'll hold, hold, hold, hold it close
             F                  Dm
To my heart beating with every step
                      G
Hold, hold, hold it close

Chorus:
Am          F
He sleeps alone,
            Dm               G               Am
He needs no army where he's headed cause he knows
                    F
That they're just ghosts
                Dm                 G
And they can't hurt him if he can see them
Am         F
And I may go
          Dm            G               Am
To places I have never been to just to find
             F             Dm G
The deepest desires in my mind

We, we only know what we see
'Cause we're always fast asleep
Is it so hard not to believe
That we'll never know?

Oh, hold, hold, hold
Hold me close
I've never been this far from home
Hold, hold, hold me close

Chorus

Am
It's in my head
           Em
And I have said
That I must be like him
F           C
He sleeps alone,
F           C
He sleeps alone
Am
And one last chance
        Em
To make sense
Of what has long escaped us
F           C
He sleeps alone,
F         C
I sleep alone

Chorus:
He sleeps alone
He needs no army where he's headed 'cause he knows
That they're just ghosts
And they can't hurt him if he can't see them, oh
And I don't know
If in the morning I will be here, and if so
Let it be known
That I was worthy, I was worthy, I was worthy, I was
