Verse
  E                           F 
A rooster with a razor cuts a hole across the sky 
   C                            G 
As light tumbles down from that all seeing eye 
      E                            F 
And I prop myself back up with the friends that I keep 
C                         G 
All I want from you is to try to get some sleep 
 
        E                           F 
And the traffic's like a symphony at three a.m. 
C                             G 
Building its crescendo as the working day begins 
 
Chorus
      C          G           F 
But I just don't think I can wait 
        E                     F 
For the light of a new day to break 
  C               Em             F               Dm 
I try to close my eyes while the anxious feeling dies 
        F              Dm 
Can you save me from desire
