Michelle Branch : Something to Sleep to
Transcribed by Jerry Sun
This is probably my favorite song on Spirit Room.
I tabbed it from her 20 dollar songbook, so it should be accurate to the recording. Enjoy!

-Verse 1 & 2-
+
She's his yellow brick road, leading him on and
letting him go as far as she lets him go.
Going down to nowhere
+
She puts on her make-up the same way she did
yesterday, hoping everything's the same.
But everything has changed.
-chorus-
In my mind, everything we did was right
Open your eyes I'll still be by your side
How could I ever have been so blind?
You give me something to sleep to at night
+
(something to sleep to at night)
-Verse 3-
+
He wakes up to the sound, So scared that she's leaving,
He wishes she were still asleep next to him
Hoping she will change
-chorus-
In my mind, everything we did was right
Open your eyes I'll still be by your side
How could I ever have been so blind?
You give me something to sleep to at night
-bridge-
+
...you give me something to sleep to
and all I know is
+
...you give me something to sleep to
and I'm all alone and blue
...don't leave me now, don't leave me now
-guitar solo-
+
...don't leave me now, don't leave me now, don't leave me now
+
...don't leave me now, don't leave me now, don't leave me now
...In my mind
-chorus-
In my mind, everything we did was right
Open your eyes I'll still be by your side
How could I ever have been so blind?
You give me something to sleep to,
Something to sleep to, something to sleep to at night
+
(Oh whoa, whoa whoa, ho ho)
You give me something to sleep to, something to sleep to
At night
