Endless Sleep Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]The night was dark, rain fallin' down.
Look for my baby,
he's [D]nowhere [G]around.
I traced his footsteps down to the shore,
Afraid he's gone [D]forever [G]more.

[Verse 2]
[Chorus] [C]I
looked at the sea, and it seemed to say,
[G]"I took your baby from you[D], awa[G]y."
[C]I heard a v[Cm]oice, cryin' in the dee[C]p,
[G]"Come join your baby in
my [D]endless sleep[G]."

[Interlude 1]
[G]

[Verse 3]
Why did we quarrel? [G]Why did we fight?
Why did I leave him [D]alone tonight?
[G]That's why his footsteps
ran to the sea.
That's why my baby is [D]gone [G]fro[C]m[G]
[D]me.[G]

[Interlude 2]
[C][Cm][C][G][D][G]

[Verse 4]
[Chorus] Ran in the water, [G]heart
full of fear.
There, in the breakers,
[D]I saw him [G]near.
Reached for my baby, held him to me,
Stole him away from the [D]endless sleep.
[G]I

[Verse 5]
[C]looked at the sea and it seemed to say,
[G]"You took your baby from me,[D] awa[G]y."
[C]My heart cried out, "He's min[Cm]e to [C]keep!"
[G]I saved my baby from that end[D]less sleep.
[G]I saved my baby from
that [D]endless sleep[G].
I saved my baby from that
[D]endless sleep[G].

[Outro 1]
[G][G][G]
