The Band - Sleeping: chords

         F        C/E        Dm7         F7/C
For the life we chose in the evening we rose,
A#maj9      A7     A7/C# Dm7   F6/C F6
just long enough to be lovers again.
     A#          F/A      Gm7           Gm7/C
And for nothing more, the world was too sore
    F   D#/F F
To live in.

Sad old ships, a morning eclipse
I spent my whole life guessing
Then I turned from the sun,
and saw everyone searching

Chorus:
     F                                      A#
The hoot owl and his song, will bring you along
F/C   C        D#/A# A#       A#/F   F
Where else on earth would you wanna go?
        F                                    A#
We can leave all this hate, before it's too late
F/C           C D#/A#   B  A#/F F
Why would we wanna come back at all?

Cobwebs on my pillow, I'm found in the willow
I'd spend my whole life sleeping
To be called by noon is to be called too soon today

The storm is passed, there is peace at last
I'll spend my whole life sleeping
Now there's not a sound, no one to be found anywhere

Chorus:
The shepherd and his sheep, will wind you to sleep
Where else on earth would you wanna go?
To a land of wonder, when you go under
Why would we want to come back at all?
