[Verse]
F F F I live in the room above her C#5 C#5 D And she doesn't know my name F F F But I'm afraid that if I see her C#5 C#5 D I will not see you again F F F Sometimes she passes by the window C#5 C#5 D Her skin is pearl and pale and ghost F F F And I hear someone crying sometimes C#5 C#5 D D#5 Like there was really something wrong oh-woah-oh...
[Chorus]
D D#5 I hear her singin', "Lay down in my arms F5 C C#5 Lover, you will one day miss all my charms D D#5 So come on, lay down in my arms F5 C C#5 Sleep, baby, sleep, the cruel morning is not very far" F C#5 D e|------------------|--------------------|---------------|-----------------------| B|------------------|--------------------|---------------|-----------------------| G|--5---5---x---5---|--------------------|---6---6---8---|-----------------------| D|--3---3---x---3---|--------------------|---6---6---6---|-----------------------| x2 A|--3---3---x---3---|-----------3--6--3--|---4---4---6---|------------6--8--6----| D|--3---3---x---3---|-3--5--6------------|-----------6---|--6--8--10-------------| Gtr II e|------------------------|-------------------------| B|------------------------|-------------------------| G|--5\6-5-6-5----5-----5--|--5\6-5-6-5----5---------| D|-----------------8-6----|-----------------8-6-6---| A|------------------------|-------------------------| D|------------------------|-------------------------|
[Verse]
F F F I never see her watch the sunrise C#5 C#5 D I hear a record lightly play F F F Sometimes I think I hear some movement C#5 C#5 D Like something can't get away F F F Now there's a picture in a Bible C#5 C#5 D That I swear I've seen before F F F Where she was bathing on the rooftop C#5 C#5 D D#5 While David looked on oh-woah-oh...
[Chorus]
D D#5 I hear her singin', "Lay down in my arms F5 C C#5 Lover, you will one day miss all my charms D D#5 So come on, lay down in my arms F5 C C#5 Sleep, baby, sleep, the cruel morning is not very far"
