Intro: 

: F#m : C#m : D : A C#7 :

F#m              C#m
Tonight when the darkness comes
D                            A       C#7
Why don't we treat it like a friend
F#m                      C#m
Then we'll both be glad to see the night
             D
And we'll be hoping 
      A             C#7
It's never going to end
   F#m      C#m                               D
So don't be afraid of what the night-time may bring
               A                 C#7          F#m
You must understand that you can dream of anything

Chorus:

F#m           C#m
So fall into sleep
             D
Peaceful and deep
            A        C#7      Dm9
And may this journey help you fly
         G
When you can't hold out much longer 
Dm9
Don't you cry
         G                           F#m
When the darkness is getting stronger
              C#m
Sleep like a child 
             D
Peaceful and deep
         A
And when you lay you down
  C#7               F#m
I pray your soul to keep
             C#m
Sleep like a child 
             D
Peaceful and deep
               A
And I when you lay you down 
  C#7               F#m
I pray your soul to keep


F#m            C#m
You won't be alone
                  D
For I will not be denied
                      A
Under the darkest of skies
          C#7        F#m
I'm gunna be by your side


[Chorus]

F#m
Well I know

I can see it in your eyes

You're tired of fighting everyday
                   D
Trying to struggle through the night
                                  C#7
Yes I know that it's hard to carry on 

So just lay down your heard
                     F#m               C#m     D       A     C#7
And in your dreams you will be strong


F#m           C#m
Sleep like a child 
             D
Peaceful and deep
             A
And when you lay you down
  C#m               F#m
I pray your soul to keep
   C#m
Oh like a child 
             D       A    C#7
Peaceful and deep

F#m           C#m
Sleep like a child 
             D
Peaceful and deep
               A
And I when you lay you down
  C#7            F#m        D       A      C#7
I pray your soul to keep
