Intro: A
              D                                              A
Go to sleep my dead end angel -- Say goodnight dear precious one 
                        D         A          E             A
For I know you're empty handed -- And all the police carry guns

A                    D
Whisper to me in the morning 
D                     A
And I'll kiss your blues away 
A                     D
For I know your body's aching 
D        A       E      A 
And the lynch mob's on the way

E                                                   A
   Just to hear your footsteps climbing up the stairs 
D                         A                     E       A
   Just to live one single day without a single care

              D                                              A
Go to sleep my dead end angel -- Say goodnight dear precious one 
                        D         A          E             A
For I know you're empty handed -- And all the police carry guns

E                                                   A
   Just to hear your footsteps climbing up the stairs 
D                         B                     E       A
   Just to live one single day without a single care

Go to sleep my dead end angel -- Say goodnight dear precious one 
                        D         A          E             A
For I know you're empty handed -- And all the police carry guns
A           E             A
And all the police carry guns
