Verse 1
(Dsus4) (B minor) (Dsus4) When (E minor) I go to sleep,
(A minor) you become my thief
(Dsus4) Why don`t (A minor) you steal
(Dsus4) what (G major) you can keep?
But (B minor) you won`t let (G major) me be
You (A minor) break into my dreams
An (Dsus4) d every (D major) day seems (Dsus4) different
(E minor) Sometimes I pretend (A minor) you`ll
come back again
(Dsus4) And you`ll console
(G major) the heart you stole (D major)
Have (B minor) pity on the man
Who (A minor) knows that you have gone
An (Dsus4) d has begun (D major) to (Dsus4) break down
Verse 2
(E minor) I (E major) feel al (C sharp minor) most possessed
So (A flat minor) long as I don`t lose this
(A minor) glorious distress then
(E major) You can take (C sharp minor) all I have left
(A flat minor) I know it`s over
(F sharp minor) If you can`t be my lover
Be my (D major) thief (A minor)
(E minor) I`m so drowsy

What (Dsus4) fades in time will (G major) hurt much more

(B minor) (Dsus4)

(E major) I feel al (C sharp minor) most possessed
So (G sharp minor) long as I don`t lose

(F sharp minor) If you can`t be my lover
