[D][G][D][G][A]
[G][A]

[Verse 1]
[G]Your
mailbox is always empty
And your landlord always complains
And you try to forget your past
But it's just adding to your pain
And it's [F]time [E]for one more ci
[Eb]garette

[Interlude 1]
[D][F][E][Eb][D][G]
[A][G]

[Verse 2]
Yes, I [G]slept on your satin
[A]pillows[G][A][G]
They felt like a second [C]skin[Dm]
You [G]needn't have looked so helpless there
I was the moth stuck on

[Interlude 2]
your pin
[G][C][Dm][G]

[G]Sleeping, I am [A]the sleeper[G][A]
[G]Sleeping, I am the[A] sleeper[G]

[Verse 4]
[G]
Oh it used to feel so [D]right[G][A]
[G]Everything seemed new
I haven't [A]changed[G]
[A]It isn't me that's wha[G]t's wro[Gm]ng with

[Interlude 3]
you

[Dm][G]

[Verse 6]
[G]The sun came up and you'd come back
[C]The[Dm] door was ope[G]n wide
I should have slammed it
in your face
I should have shot you in the back
That's what Je[Dm]sus
[G]would have done
If Satan had come
And looked him in the eye and said
"You're my kind [Dsus4]of guy,
why don't you come [G]away with me?
Come away with me"
Cause I love you, I love ya,
I love ya - that's what she said
I love ya, love ya
I'd [C]rather [Dm]speak to [G]Satan himself

[Verse 7]
[F]
I love you, I [E]love [Eb]you, I [D]love [G]you[F]
I [E]love [Eb]you, [D]I'm the sleeper
