[Intro] G  A  D  Bm

             G                     A
Placing a smile at the perfect event
               D                      Bm
Gracing your skin with the side of my hand
            G                           A
If I ever leave, I could learn to miss you
                  D                  Bm
But "Sentimental Boy" is my nom de plume

G       A        F#m       A
Let me save you, hold this rope

[Chorus]

Bm            G          D
I may never sleep tonight
Bm                      G             D
As long as you're still burning bright
Bm
If I could trade mistakes for sheep
  G             D
Count me away before you sleep
Bm
I'll stay awake 'til I trade my mistakes
        G        D
Or they fade away

( G  A  D  Bm )

          G                 A
I feel marooned in this body
             D                           Bm
Deserted my organs, could go on without me
          G           A
You can't fly these wings
           D                       Bm
You can't sleep in this box with me

G       A        F#m       A
Let me save you, hold this rope

[Chorus]

Bm            G          D
I may never sleep tonight
Bm                      G             D
As long as you're still burning bright
Bm
If I could trade mistakes for sheep
  G             D
Count me away before you sleep
Bm
I'll stay awake 'til I trade my mistakes
        G        D
Or they fade away

[Bridge]

   F#m     G        A         D
So let me save you, hold this rope
          
And I'll pull you in
       F#m     G       A 
'Cause I am an anchor, save her
D
Or feel it sinking in
F#m     G        A         D
Let me save you, hold this rope
F#m     G      A       D
I am an anchor sinking her

( G  A  D  Bm )

[Chorus]

Bm            G          D
I may never sleep tonight
Bm                      G             D
As long as you're still burning bright
Bm
If I could trade mistakes for sheep
  G             D
Count me away before you sleep
Bm
I'll stay awake 'til I trade my mistakes
        G        D
Or they fade away
