Love this band a lot, and I really wanted to play this
song as it's coming up to Christmas. I couldn't find
chords so I worked out a really simple version which
I wanted to share. Hopefully it is ok i've a novice at
working this stuff out!
I had some trouble with the bridge/outro bit
near the end so apologies for that!

------------------------------------------------------------------
G
You wouldn't be up at night
D A
if it wasn't for Christmas lights
G D A
this year has moved in unexpected ways
G
where the pillow should reach your head
D A
there's a sorrow that comes instead
G D A
and stays with you until the morning light
G D A
dreams are hatching, no one's watching
G D A
days are endless, never finished
(sing you to sleep, sing you to sleep)
G D A
want the past, but you can't have it
G D A
silent blessing, finally resting
G
they all try to search for you
D A
but there's nowhere to send them to
G D A
the family room is filled with empty space
G
the television starts to sing
D A
but it doesn't say anything
G D A
and no one's saying anything at all
(Sing you to...)
G D A
dreams are hatching, no one's watching
G D A
days are endless, never finished
(sing you to sleep, sing you to sleep)
G D A
want the past, but you can't have it
G D A
silent blessing, finally resting

***Bridge//Outro****
[No lyrics here just chords which I am not totally sure on,
if you listen to the song you will here this part is different
from the rest.
The last two times with the 'Ahhhhh' you can play they same
chords softly or just don't play them at all :)]
G G/F# D A [x3]
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh [x2]
-------------------------------------------
G D A
G
(sing you to sleep, sing you to sleep)
D A
burn the bridge that leads to places
G D A
where ghosts from Christmas never left us
G D A
each new year brings hope and meaning [x4]
G..... (let it ring)
