Lyrics

[Intro]
| Dm | - | C | - |
| Dm | - | C | - |

[Verse 1]
Dm                              C
  You can look a hurricane right in the eye
Dm                             C
  Twelve hundred people dead or left to die
Dm
  Follow the leaders
              A#          Dm
Were it an eye  for an eye
We'd all be blind, deaf or murdered
             A#
This I'm sure
          Dm      A
In this uncertain time

[Chorus]
Dm                             C
  So come pull a sheet over my eyes
   F          E       A#
So I can sleep tonight
       Dm          C
Despite  what I've seen today
Dm                         C
  I find you guilty of the crime
   F          E      A#               Dm          C
Of sleeping in a time  when you should  have been wide
     F G Dm
awake

[Verse 2]
Dm
  Down on the road the world is floating by
                       C
The poor and undefended left behind
Dm                                            A#
  While you're somewhere trading lives for oil
          Dm               A
As if the whole world were blind

[Chorus]
Dm                             C
  So come pull a sheet over my eyes
   F          E       A#
So I can sleep tonight
       Dm          C         Dm
Despite  what I've seen today
                             C
I've found you guilty of the crime
   F          E      A#               Dm          C
Of sleeping in a time  when you should  have been wide
     F G
awake

So I can sleep tonight
   Dm             C
Despite what I've seen today
Dm                          C
  I found you guilty of the crime
   F          E      A#               Dm          C
Of sleeping in a time  when you should  have been wide
