[Verse 1]
                               G
I know I’ve seen your face somewhere

                        Am
Selling something, some big idea

                             D
I know I’ve seen that vacant stare

                    G
Selling sunsets for somebody else

                             G
You find yourself asking yourself

                  Am
What is any of it worth?

                          D
You find yourself looking up at night

                       G
From the bottom of the earth
[Chorus 1]
Am               D                   G    Bm      Em
And oh, can this world not afford to sleep anymore

    Am           D
And oh, did your sheep start jumping

     Bm
They grow out their teeth

         Em                      Am         D
Did they need a little something more, than this?
[Verse 2]
                             G
The taste of trouble on your lips

                                Am
‘Cause now there bitin’ at your thoughts

                          D
You tell yourself just to turn away

                            G
But you know you’ve already lost

                            G
The smell of rain when it’s on a wind

                      Am
Will never be paid in full

                     D
You try in vain to account for this mess

                        G
And everything that you stole
[Chorus 2]
Am               D                   G    Bm      Em
And oh, can this world not afford to sleep anymore

    Am           D
And oh, did your sheep start jumping

     Bm
They grow out their teeth

         Em                      Am         D
Did they need a little something more, than this?
[Verse 3]
                                  G
‘Cause now they’re bitin’ at your feet

                               Am
They got you running from this place

                                    D
And now they’re breathing down your neck

                             G
Your eyes look lonely in your face

                       G
I see you looking just out of frame

                       Am
What is it pulling you there?

                                     D
‘Cause things can never the stay the same

                       G
So what is keeping you here?
[Chorus 3]
Am               D                   G    Bm      Em
And oh, can this world not afford to sleep anymore

    Am           D
And Oh, did your sheep start jumping

     Bm
They grow out their teeth

    Em
And need a little something now

Am                                   D
Every time you think, well they’d be biting at your thoughts

    Bm
And every time you blink

               Em
Well you’ll be so damn far

             Am         D
But you want more, than this
[Outro]
                               G
I know I’ve seen your face somewhere
