Verse 1
G

Lying in my bed It's

about 5 o'clock

in the morning.

I'm lying in my bed,
D

looking at my sleepy eyed pretty girl.
G
D

I guess she's asleep now; God,
A

she's so beautiful.
C

She may not mean a thing to you because
G

people don't know her like I do.
F

But if you've got someone you love very much
D
Dm
G
Dm
D
Dm

you'll know what I mean.
G
D
Dm

Wish I could get to sleep; so many thoughts
G
D

about her keep coming back and I'm so very tired.
G
D

Things like how I'm going to learn to
G

understand the way she feels inside.
D

I want her to love me and

let me be her man.
Dm
G

But that sounds too possessive; it's not meant to be,

it just sounds that way.

Or to search each others bodies with the sensitive
Dm
D

pleasure of the newness of making love.
F
G
Dm

So new in fact we didn't get
D
Dm
A

that far yet.
C

We haven't known each other that long so, for instance,
G
F
D
Dm
G

we're still strangers and hold back at certain times when we should be close.

Verse 2
D
G
D

She told me she never had pleasure out of sex before,
G
D

sort of like an ordeal a lot of the time.

So I guess she doesn't really
Dm
F
G
D

trust men very much now.
G

So it looks like that part of our relationship is gonna

take a while to happen the way it should.
D
F
G
D

That's why it's so hard for me to fall asleep with her lying here – looking so defenceless,
A
G
F
D
F
Dm

desirable and feminine.
D

Verse 3

Dm
F
Dm
D
Dm
F
Dm
D

Time is so short these days but there are some things that can't be rushed and I can appreciate that loving her is one of those things,
G
D

if anything worthwhile is to be accomplished.
G

Funny how in the daytime I never

get to feeling quite this way.

I mean, I probably wouldn't be thinking
D

these sort of thoughts.
F
D

I'm looking out the window, see the dawn coming and sleep
A
C

will soon be taking me to where- ever she is now.
G

Sleepy (eyed) pretty girl,
F
D

why are we so separate and alone?
G
D

How do you feel when the doubts's between

you and the one you love.
G
D

It's still 5 o'clock in the morning
G
D

and I'm still looking at her.
G

I know she's asleep now.
D
G
D

She looks so beautiful yet so alone,
G
D
D

so alone, alone

  • Best Tuning App Ever

    MaddProfessor

    I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

  • Well-Designed App

    Rose the Black Cat

    I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

  • Got me back into playing

    Tuliketsune

    I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

  • Secret weapon

    Brad

    Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

  • Very reliable tuner

    theNewPaul

    This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

  • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

    Caleb Schafli

    It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

  • Great to tune and play

    Lynae T

    I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
