Fantastic new song from Travis from the album The Boy With No Name. You'll struggle to
a better live band.
I messed about on my guitar for about half an hour and came up with this. I'm pretty
this is about right. It sounds a wee bit like 'Side'.

Verse 1:
All these visions in my head
Should've gone to bed before the watershed
Some are live and some are dead
makes no diferrence when they're in your head
Em, Emadd9 (x 3) then D, Em (repeat this x 2)
Verse 2:
Keep the door open a crack
so I can see them when they attack
some are white and some are black
makes no difference when they're on your back
CHORUS:
And I can't stop crying.
And I can't stop trying.

Cuz the day is dying, dying, dying
With my Eyes Wide Open
Em, Emadd9 (x 3) then D, Em (repeat this x 2)
Verse 3:
Count the sheep jumping the fence
so I can see (something!) when I'm feeling tense
dis-believe hung with suspense
I die down with my own defence
CHORUS:
And I can't stop crying.
And I can't stop trying.

Verse 4:
All these visions in my head
Should've gone to bed before the watershed
Some are live and some are dead
makes no diferrence when they're in your head

And I can't stop crying.
And I can't stop trying.
G/f#
Cuz the day is dying, dying, dying
With my Eyes Wide Open
