**I only tab for Guitar Tab Universe!**
Tuning: Standard
G5
At 4.25 am with the alarm set for eight
C5
I should be asleep instead I lie awake
B5 A5 E7sus4
I write down thoughts, meaningless and so dry
Time waits for no man but I wish it would pass
Hurry on so as I can be tired at last
If I see one more dawn I'll just want to die
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/m/mcareavy_diarmuid/sleepless_tab.html ]
Prechorus I: (Strum each one chord once only)
G C
Sleeplessness but not insomnia
B A
I refuse to use the buzzword
G C
That fashionable hypochondriacs
B A
Use more than I care to
Chorus:
G C
So thinking of drinking heavily
Em Am
In the name of finding some sleep
Em Am Csus4 Cmaj7
Where's the sandman when I need him
Em(VII) Dm(V)
I feel so dizzy, I feel so weak
Em7(VII) Dm(V)*strum once*
I feel so dizzy, I feel...
...almost nocturnal, I just want to dream
You all sleep soundly, at least so it seems
But everytime I lie down I just wake up instead
Now feeling dog tired but not a bit sleepy
At my wits end the hope that I'm keeping
Is hoping that soon I'll not be hating my bed
Prechorus II:
Heavy eyes and cigarettes
That's my day to night routine
I'm watching another sunrise
That I never should have seen
Chorus
I feel so dizzy, I feel so weak
I feel so dizzy, I feel kind of weak.
