Selection chords: Ethan Cooper

 C
Like a rock that came rolling down the hill
           Dm
Iʼve been searching for something to kill
     Em
Iʼm shameless
                    Dm
and Iʼve aimlessly drawn

 C
I wanna lay down somewhere
         Dm
I wanna close my eyes
        Em
Iʼve a good girl waiting
                     Dm
If I ainʼt back soon, she may be gone

 F            Em
Hmm, mmm, mmm, itʼs all the same
        F
Itʼs enough to hold her close
            G
But Iʼm in need of pleasant dreams

      C
So I cried to the doctor
Doctor, please come quick
    Dm
My worldʼs grown tired and sick
    Em                            Dm
If it ainʼt fixed, I fear it may fall

 C
I wanna lay down somewhere
 Dm
Lay down and die
           Em
Well, the Doc just smiled and said in a good while
      Dm
Son, sometimes donʼt we all

 F            Em
Hmm, mmm, mmm, itʼs all the same
        F
Itʼs enough to hold her close
            G
But Iʼm in need of pleasant dreams

              C
So wonʼt you wake me
 Dm
In the morning light
 G
Wake me
                 F
When the morning comes

       C
Well, I ran outside and shout
    Dm
So loud it shook the earth
    Em                          Dm
So loud it chilled the air and cleared the sky

 C
I wanna lay down somewhere
 Dm
Down by her side
               Em
And Iʼve been going too long to crawl back now
 Dm
And crumble in her eyes

 C
I see a lock and a key and clock on the wall
       Dm
And I swear I hear her singinʼ
     Em
The air smells sweet
                       Dm
And I do think thereʼs coffee in it

 C
I wanna lay down somewhere
    Dm
As long as time abides
               Em
And with that morning sky above
                  Dm
We can share our love with sleep still in our eyes

 F            Em
Hmm, mmm, mmm, itʼs all the same
        F
Itʼs enough to hold her close
            G
But Iʼm in need of pleasant dreams

              C
So wonʼt you wake me
 Dm
In the morning light
 G
Wake me
                 F
When the morning comes

              C
So wonʼt you wake me
 Dm
In the morning light
 G
Wake me
                 F
When the morning comes

 F Em F G
Hmmm, mmm, mmm, hmmm, mmm, mmm...
