Michelle Branch : Something to Sleep to
Transcribed by Jerry Sun
This is probably my favorite song on Spirit Room.
I tabbed it from her 20 dollar songbook, so it should be accurate to the recording. Enjoy!

-Verse 1 & 2-
She's his yellow brick road, leading him on and
letting him go as far as she lets him go. 
Going down to nowhere
She puts on her make-up the same way she did
yesterday, hoping everything's the same. 
But everything has changed. 
-chorus-
In my mind, everything we did was right
Open your eyes I'll still be by your side
How could I ever have been so blind?
You give me something to sleep to at night
(something to sleep to at night) 
-Verse 3-
He wakes up to the sound, So scared that she's leaving,
He wishes she were still asleep next to him
Hoping she will change 
-chorus-
In my mind, everything we did was right
Open your eyes I'll still be by your side
How could I ever have been so blind?
You give me something to sleep to at night
-bridge-
...you give me something to sleep to 
and all I know is
...you give me something to sleep to
and I'm all alone and blue
...don't leave me now, don't leave me now
-guitar solo-
    
...don't leave me now, don't leave me now, don't leave me now
...don't leave me now, don't leave me now, don't leave me now
...In my mind
-chorus-
In my mind, everything we did was right
Open your eyes I'll still be by your side
How could I ever have been so blind?
You give me something to sleep to,
Something to sleep to, something to sleep to at night
(Oh whoa, whoa whoa, ho ho)
You give me something to sleep to, something to sleep to
At night
