The Chills — Singing In My Sleep

    	    	Вступление

From the 1990 classic Submarine Bells. Small note: strum E on the 'wake' at the end just once to end the song.

[Verse 1]
B
Singing in my sleep
                              A
A word from the wise for the mindless
                                           E
Hoping to keep all the silences out of my life

[Verse 2]
B
Singing in my sleep
                              A
A stinging reproach against violence
                                              E
Hoping to cope with the pressures of musical life

[Verse 3]
B
Changing my values
                           A
A leader of people who're guideless
A
So doing add to collection
                             E
The title of blind leading blind leading blind leading
E
Blind leading blind leading blind

[Instrumental bit]
B - A
A - E

[Verse 4]
B                                       A
Dangerous rages and amplified airing of anger
A
Repression of feeling
                       E
Preserved for a later date

[Verse 5]
B
The search for compassion
                               A
And attributes found in those younger
                                          E
Finding, however, unaccountable harrowing hate

[Verse 6]
B
Craving reaction
                    A
A hideous terminal hunger
                                                  E
Starving for life in a world with so much on its plate

[Instrumental bit]

A - E

[Verse 7]
B
Singing in my sleep
                          A
Songs of such beauty and sadness
A
Earth's emotions enraptured
                                E
But the songs fade away when I wake
