Sleeping — текст песни (The Band)

Intro: F/C C, Eb/Bb Bb, Bb/F F

F C/E Dm7 F7/C
For the life we chose in the evening we rose,

Bbmaj9 A7 A7/C# Dm7 F6/C F6
just long enough to be lovers again.

Bb F/A Gm7 Gm7/C
And for nothing more, the world was too sore

F Eb/F F
To live in.

Sad old ships,
A morning eclipse,
I spent my whole life guessing,
Then I turned from the sun
And saw everyone
Searching.

F Bb
The hoot owl and his song, will bring you along

F/C C Eb/Bb Bb Bb/F F
Where else on earth would you wanna go?

F Bb
We can leave all this hate, before it`s too late

F/C C Eb/Bb Bb Bb/F F
Why would we wanna come back at all?

Cobwebs on my pillow,
I`m found in the willow,
I`d spend my whole life sleeping.
To be called by noon
Is to be called too soon
Today.

The storm is passed,
There is peace at last,
I`ll spend my whole life sleeping.
Now there`s not a sound,
No one to be found
Anywhere.

The shepherd and his sheep
Will wind you to sleep,
Where else on earth would you wanna go ?
To a land of wonder
When you go under,
Why would we want to come back at all ?

Coda: F Eb/F F7
