Am Spend my nights howling at the moon Never wake before noon Dm E And when the sun it rises Am G F Oh, it always rises soon D E F 'Cause I spend my nights howlin at the moon ('ey) Am I never get sleep, sleep, sleep F No, I just reach, reach, reach Dm E I can feel it on the ends of my fingers Am G F And taste it on the tips of my teeth D E Am So you see why I never get sleep Am Can't get no sleep, don't know why I Can't get no sleep, don't know why I Can't get no sleep, no no I I can't get no sleep Spend my nights shooting at the stars Trying to change the world with this guitar I know it's a long shot But it's working out so far so I spend my nights shooting at the stars (hey) I never get sleep, sleep, sleep No, I just reach, reach, reach I can feel it on the ends of my fingers And taste it on the tips of my teeth So you see why I never get sleep Can't get no sleep, don't know why (Never get sleep) I Can't get no sleep, don't know why (Never get sleep) I Can't get no sleep, no no I (Never get sleep) I can't get no sleep Count sheep! I already tried! Drink whiskey! Makes my throat too dry! Smoke weed! (Uh-huh) Makes my eyes all red Take a pill, Al! What, and end up dead? Dm E I can feel it on the ends of my fingers Am G F And taste on the tips of my teeth D E F So you see why I never get sleep Chorus D E F So you see why I never get sleep D E F So you see why I never get sleep D E Am So you see why I never get sleep!
