[Verse]
G        Am    Bm
I fall asleep every night
G             Am           Bm
Feeling that thing, they alright
Am           D      Bm                C
Why can't I see the way it should be? No
C                        D
Time to lay down with no fight
G          Am        Bm
Why did I say just goodnight?
G           Am       Bm
Saw in her face a dim light
Am                   D
It was there that I knew
Bm                           C
Dim light shone through her soul
C                      D
I stood there almost crying

G Am Bm D

Bm                         C        D
Words you hold back never get reply
G               C               D
Words without wings they never touch the sky
C                       C
Why can't I say what is on my mind?
A                  D
I guess I'm just, I'm just not the kind
G                     Am           Bm
And then what would I say, what to tell her?
G                 Am                    Bm
"You've done me wrong now," she'd say, "Well I,
Am       D            Bm                    C
I can't help but be a man's woman see, you know
C                                D
The name of my street boy, is Sasilla."

G            Am    Bm
What would I say, what to tell her?
G            Am    Bm
What would I say, what to tell her?
