Sleep Instead Of Teardrops

G     Cm    G     Cm

[Verse 1]
G                        Cm     Dsus      D              C
Cry, cry out your eyes forever, it won't go away
G               Cm             Dsus       D                 C
I, I'm just a dumb observer, it's so stupid what I say

[Chorus]
                     G                              G7
Like everyone else will do, I'm gonna lie to you
                         Dm                 Fm                          Em7
And tell you that life is cruel but someday you're gonna wake up
        Dm7                G                        C                C7
With sleep instead of teardrops in your eyes

[Verse 2]
And so, nobody lives forever, the crassest of clichés
Like time, time is the greatest healer, but it's a murderer today

(Repeat Chorus)

[Bridge]
C7 (Still from last chord of the chorus)          Em7          F
         You know me holding you won't change anything
                                      Em7          F
I can't stop this whole charade continuing
                                     G                   F
As each consoling kiss remains on your face
          Dm                 G                 C                  C7
Like a stain........

[Verse 3]
So cry, cry out those tears and let them, succumb to gravity
And try, try as I might I'll never, fill that vacancy

[Last Chorus] (A little different to the others at the end)
                     G                              G7
Like everyone else will do, I'm gonna lie to you
                        Dm                  Fm                         Em7
And tell you that life is cruel but someday you're gonna wake up
        Dm7                G                       C
With sleep instead of teardrops in your eyes
C7                            Em7
Someday you're gonna wake up
        F                      G                      C
With sleep instead of teardrops in your eyes
