You’re gonna sleep like a baby tonight.

In your dreams, everything is alright.
          F#m               E          B
Tomorrow dawns like someone else’s suicide.

Dreaming,   Where there is silence and not
   F#m      A                    E     
Screaming,     Where there’s no daylight, there’s no 
 D            B 
Healing, no, no

You’re gonna sleep like a baby tonight.

F#m  A            E    
Hope,   hope is where the
F#m       A                        E     
Door is,      When the church is where the
F#m     A                 E     
War is,     Where no one can 
  D                 B 
Feel no one else’s pain.

Tomorrow dawns like someone else’s suicide.

 F#m          E      D
Sleep like a baby tonight.
       F#m          E                D
Like a bird, your dreams take a flight.
           F#m    E             B
Like St. Francis covered in light.
               D                  E
You’re gonna sleep like a baby tonight.
