C 
The cars pass by outside 
F 
From one sign to the next 
Am                 F 
She tries to listen, tries to care, 
Pretending he knows best 
C 
She's afraid of what she's done 
F 
Not knowing what it is, 
Am                               F 
She prays for something, prays for his sins, 
Someday she'll find rest 
Am 
But the time is never right, 
 G 
No it's never right, 
 C                       F 
To step outside her life 
 Am                   G 
To find what's been lost 
She'll sleep on it tonight 
 
(Intro) 
 
 C 
A voice she left behind, 
 F 
Tells her that there's time 
 Am                    F 
She bears the burden, blames her own sin 
 
Hopes she'll change her mind 
 
C 
The pain that never hides, 
 F 
A reflection from inside 
Am                        F 
She conceals the message, buries her head, 
 
Tells herself she's fine 
 
 Am 
But her eyes, they say goodbye 
 G 
No, they never lie 
 C                    F 
The windows to her life 
 
 Am       G 
To find, what's been lost, 
She'll sleep on it tonight 
 
C   C   G   Am     F 
             Oh, She'll sleep on it tonight 
 C   G   Am     F 
 
 C   G   Am     F 
         Oh, She'll sleep on it tonight 
 C   G   Am     F 
 
C   G   Am     F 
She feels alive without a reason 
C   G   Am     F 
Love, pain, tonight, she finally listens 
C   G   Am     F 
She comes alive, without a reason 
C   G   Am     F 
Love, faith, tonight, she finally listens
