[Em] [-] [C] [-] [Em] [-] [D] [-] [Em]
[Em]I wonder, can you daydream at night?
[C]Lying awake, I've had [D]too much time.
[Em]I'm watching picture shows in the shadows
Dance for the crowd to[C]night.
Imagi[D]nation is such a vivid place to [C]hide,
While stars watch [D]over you.
Through silent [Em]homes
The lights are out but I [D]walk these halls,
The way I've walked be[C]fore,
Sleeping, with [D]saints and apparitions between the [Em]walls.
The lights are out but I [D]walk these halls,
[C]I promised not to wake you, so I'll walk [D]light, just so you can [Em]hear,
The rats in the roof and termites in the [C]ceiling.
We'll hear [D]everything except what we need to [Em]hear.
Sleeplessness is for the restless, and [C]I'm just fine,
Left to [D]wander, aimless in un[C]consciousness.[D]
[Em]There's spiders [D]crawling from the corners of my [C]eyes.
Let them weave their little [D]webs to snatch the sunlight from the [Em]lens.
I'm staring at the [D]ceiling 'cause I'm fed up with the [C]sight.
Weigh my eyelids back to [D]sleep, sealed by silken silver [C]threads,
While stars watch [D]over you.
Through silent [Em]homes
The lights are out but I [D]walk these halls,
The way I've walked be[C]fore,
Sleeping, with [D]saints and apparitions between the [Em]walls.
The lights are out but I [D]walk these halls,
[C]Cast the sheep out of your [D]mind,
Count the wolves and we'll sleep to[Em]night.
[Em]I stumble in and I stumble o[D]ut of unfamiliar rooms in [C]foreign houses,
But [D]I'm at home,
[Em]Now a ghost that has left be[D]hind his sheets,
Unrequited, un[C]til I [D]wake up somewhere I know that I've never [C]been.
I'll stay 'til [D]sleep takes over [Em]you.
I'll stay 'til [D]sleep takes over [C]you.
And I'll walk while [D]stars watch over [Em]you.
And I'll walk while [D]stars watch over [C]you.
Through silent [Em]homes
The lights are out but I [D]walk these halls,
The way I've walked be[C]fore,
Sleeping, with [D]saints and apparitions between the [Em]walls.
The lights are out but I [D]walk these halls,
The way I've walked be[C]fore,
Sleeping, with [D]saints and apparitions between the [Em]walls.
The lights are out but I[D] walk these halls,
[C]Cast the sheep out of your [D]mind,
Count the wolves and we'll sleep to[C]night.
