Counting Sheep Lyrics & Tabs by The Crane Wives
Counting Sheep
guitar chords lyrics
Sigh into your cup of coffee
As you watch the morning news
There goes your good day
There's the knot on the noose
Pop a pill and thus a smile
Feign contentment for a while
That's all you know how to do
When the wool is off your eyes
You'll stop counting sheep at night
'Cause you'll get your fill of them
During the day time.
Medicine to make you thin
But puts an end to your dreamin
Bleeding together--
The nights seem to stretch on forever
But puts an end to your dreamin
Bleeding together--
The nights seem to stretch on forever
Morning comes a day too soon
You're back inside your tiny room
Waiting for something
So good at doing nothing
When the wool is off your eyes
You'll stop counting sheep at night
'Cause you'll get your fill of them
During the day time.
As the sunlight filters in
There your daily dread sets in
The cycle's beginning
And in your head, alarms are ringing
Something in you's fast asleep
Afraid to be who you will be
It's a losing battle,
So why are you still fighting?
When the wool is off your eyes
You'll stop counting sheep at night
'Cause you'll get your fill of them
During the day time.
Are you sleeping,
Are you sleeping,
Brother John?
Bells are ringing
Bells are ringing
Ding, ding, dong
