This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

VERSE (w/gtr.2 riff except for bends. w/slight variation)

Stars leave the morning,

Sleep clouds my view,

Don't let them come round here,

And call for you,

I didn't notice,

It's a crime too few,

I didn't notice,

It's a crime to feel.

CHORUS (gtrs.1+2)

C G/B

An' I try to sleep alone,

D5 G

But I couldn't do it.

You could be sitting next to me,

And I wouldn't know it,

G/B

If I told you you was wrong,

D5 G

I don't remember saying,

I don't remember saying.

REPEAT VERSE RIFF ONCE

VERSE

I'll be your shadow,

In the cedar room,

And leave just a memory,

Alone with you,

I didn't see that,

It's a call too soon,

I couldn't see that,

It's a call to you.

CHORUS 2

C G/B

An' I try to sleep alone,

D5 G

But I couldn't do it.

You could be sitting next to me,

And I wouldn't know it,

G/B

If I told you you was wrong,

D5 G

I don't remember saying,

I don't remember saying.

C G/B

An' I try to sleep alone,

D5 G

But I couldn't do it.

You could be sitting next to me,

And I wouldn't know it,

G/B

If I told you you was wrong,

D5 G

I don't remember saying,

I don't remember saying.
