D                          A 
  I should move 'cause New York is getting muddy out 
Bm                    
   There's LA but it's always kind of sunny out 
    D                     A 
And I don't wanna hurt no more 
   Bm                    D  A 
So I set my bar real low

Cause it's half past 3 and my brain's on fire 
Em                              D 
I've been counting sheep and the sheep all died

I've been counting sheep and the sheep all died
