Sleeping Through Heaven

      B
As I walk among my small regrets
             E                              B
Through the valley of the shadow where do I get
                                        E
With all my intents and purpose, I'm looking for some level surface
    B             F#          A            B
I turn to you. I know this tension doesn't go away.
    F#      A              B
But I will look it in the face today
 F#     A                  E
See in color though they show me in gray
      B
So I put my shoes on and pay my debts
          E                                   B
And get hours ahead of all the tears I can forget

With my arm around your back
         E                                    B
I will play the deck no matter how much it's stacked
              F#        A              B
And we could have some say in what we take as real
 F#         A               B
Grab this town like it was no big deal
      F#  A               E
But everyone's afraid to break the seal
       A
So I drive home past the closed up stores and homes
                 C#m   G#m      F#    E
That each look sadder than the one before
           B          C#m    F#
I want to go bang on every door
          C#m              G#m              F#
and say "Wake up, you're sleeping through heaven"
    E        A        B        F#         E
And I don't care who knows, I don't know who cares
A       B          F#         E      A       B
If you don't want yours then let me have my share
