O Sleep

This song is finger-picked but can't really be heard clearly after the first verse so I
didn't try to tab it out exactly.

Intro:
O Sleep, come for me I will go quietly
where the roof doesn’t leak in my heart
O Sleep, come for me I’m a boat, sprung a leak
I’ll hide and you’ll seek a new start
for me. Until dawn I’ll be too gone
to care how grey the day is
The dreams that it chases away
they stay asleep.
O Sleep, come for me I will come willingly
like a leaf from a tree in October
O Sleep, come for me I wait hopefully
I was drunk on a dream now I’m sober
From now until dawn it can’t be too long
for me, I count the hours
‘til I sleep with your feet by my feet
From now until dawn it can’t be too long
for me, I count the hours
‘til I sleep with your feet by my feet
your breath on my cheek, asleep
