[Verse]
Am C
I see you in the morning, feel your fingers in my hair
Em F
Sometimes I still pretend you’re there
Am C
It hits me without warning, your reflection walking by
Em F
But I know it’s only in my mind

[Pre-Chorus]
Am C
Will you show me the piece of my heart I’ve been missing?
Am G
Won’t you give me the part of myself that I can’t give back?
Am C
Will you show me the piece of my heart I’ve been missing?
G C
‘Cause I’d kill for you, and darling you know that

[Chorus]
Am
So I’ll light up a cigarette
C
I’ll drink it down ’til there’s nothing left
G
‘Cause I sure can’t get no sleep
G
And Lord knows there’s no relief
Am
You held my heart in your fingertips
C
So now I drown in my bitterness
G
Oh, I can’t get no sleep
G C
And I sure won’t, I sure won’t find no peace
Am G C F
No peace

[Verse]
Am C
All that I am asking is for a little clarity
Em F
That’s all that really matters to me
Am C
In and out of focus, tears are in my eyes
Em F
We’re burning down the bridges this time

[Chorus]
Am
So I’ll light up a cigarette

I’ll drink it down ’til there’s nothing left

‘Cause I sure can’t get no sleep (no sleep)

And Lord knows there’s no relief

You held my heart in your fingertips

So now I drown in my bitterness
G
Oh, I can’t get no sleep
G
And I sure won’t, I sure won’t find

[Bridge]

I used to find comfort in your arms

Caught up in the wonder of your charms

But I don’t even know you anymore
