Intro: F#-G#m-E
Verse:
I can't sleep, I need some sleep
My soul's worn thin, I'm drenched in sin
When all is gone, will I find
A place called home, a home of mine
Chorus:
But tonight, I won't mind, I'm awake, I'm alive
Need to swear to myself that I'll make it alright
Because night after night, it gets bolder and bright.
And now rest is just a notion I forgot
Pre-verse: F#-G#m-B
Verse:
Darkness falls, I check my pulse
Fast and fierce, while cities sleep
I lie awake, I can't pretend
For the life of me, I've made amends
Chorus:
But tonight, I won't mind, I'm awake, I'm alive
Need to swear to myself that I'll make it alright
Because night after night, it gets bolder and bright.
And now rest is just a notion I forgot
So awake, so awake, yeah
So awake, so awake, yeah
So awake, yeah, so awake, yeah
Verse:
I can't sleep, I need some sleep
My soul's worn thin, I'm drenched in sin
When all is gone, then will I find
A place called home, a home of mine
Chorus:
Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight I won't mind
Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight I won't mind
Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight
I won't mind, I won't mind, I won't
So awake, so awake, I won't mind
So awake, so awake, yeah
I can't sleep...
