Sleeping to Dream
-----------------
This version of my song is based on one of his live concert at Rotown, Rotterdam 
(you can search in YouTube posted by pinkboxers). If you are familiar 
with his live shows you should know by now that he likes to play around 
with his chords and make them sound beautiful.  

Capo on 2nd Fret

G[1]     (3 2 0 0 3 3) *G1 coz there are 3 versions of G that he played

-> = quickly change to

But of course there is always a freedom to strum it your on way. 
You don't need to follow accordingly. Don't ever let chords limit 
your creativity. :)

Verse 1

G[2]                     Cadd9[4]
I'm Dreaming to sleeping next to you
                                        G[2]          Cadd9[4] 
I'm Feeling like a lost little boy in a brand new town
G[2]                             C                 
I'm counting my sheep and that each one that passes is another dream to 
               G[1]      Cadd9    Em7    Am7
ashes and they all fall down


     C[1]    Cmaj9    Am7            
As I lay me down to night
           C[1]          Em9        G[3]          
I close my eyes, what a beautiful sight

I'm sleeping to dream about you, and im so damn tired 
                     C[2]                 G[3] 
of having to live without you, but i dont mind at all

Verse 2:
                      Cadd9[1]
I found myself in the riches, your eyes, your lips, your hair 
            G[1]         Cadd9[1]      G[1]
You were everywhere, out there
                    Cadd9[1]                 
But i woke up in the ditches, I hit the light and I thought you might be 
               G[1]                      
here, but you were no where, 
  Cadd9[1]
oh love, 
         Em7         Am7
you were nowhere at home


Pre-chorus:
     C[1]   Cmaj9    Am7
As I lay me back to sleep, 
            C[1]         Em9     G
this love I pray me that I can keep

                   Cadd9[1]                G[1]
of having to live without you, but I dont mind

I'm sleeping to dream about you, and I'm so tired

Well its just a little lullaby
   Cmaj9                         Am7
to keep myself from crying, myself a little lullaby to keep..keep 
 C[1]                   Cmaj9 
Just a little lullaby to keep myself from crying,
