She's says, "I'm dying every day,

|-Riff 1---->

Would you save me? Would you pick me up and out of this pit?"

|-Riff 1---->

She says, "Darling, I can't recall

|-Riff 1---->

Why my chest insists to rise and fall."

|-Riff 1---->

As he's watching her eye-lids close

|-Riff 1---->

In the TV glow he can't helping thinkin' that

She's a tightrope walker And he's the streets below. (HOLD Cadd9)

 So put you arms down, honey,

 This ain't no execution,

I was just watching you sleep.

 So put that crown down, sugar,

 This ain't no crucifiction,

I was just watching you sleep. I was just watching you.
