I Cant Sleep
Steve Goodman
Fm7/Ab----- 4 3 1 1 1 1 * -------- 5 7 7 6 5 5 G --------- 3 5 5 4 3 3 -------- 4 6 6 5 4 4 This is based on his live version from the Easter Tapes. Goodman arpeggiates the first verse and then plucks or strums the rest of the song in 6/8 time. As noted above when he goes to the A and the D in the bridge barred at the 3rd and 4th respectively. Last night I stayed up late to watch the sunrise It afforded a wonderful view Count the sheep ’til I cry Count the times you said goodbye And I can’t sleep when I can’t sleep with you There’s no need to think you’d remember A love like some forgotten I.O.U. I’ve been watchin’ the dawn Every night since you’re gone And I can’t sleep when I can’t sleep with you Oh babe I’m so lonely Now I’m wonderin’ what I’m gonna do All of my life I’ve been dreamin’ a sweet dream How was I to know that dream was you I stayed up late to watch the sunrise And I’ll stay up late tomorrow night too Count the sheep ’til I cry Count the times you said goodbye And I can’t sleep when I can’t sleep with you Oh babe I’m so lonely Now I’m wonderin’ what I’m gonna do You don’t have to wake me when it’s over Now I know I can’t get over you Last night I stayed up late to watch the sunrise And I’ll stay up late tomorrow night too Hear that early bird call Ain’t it hard when you fall I can’t sleep when I can’t sleep with you I can’t sleep at night when I can’t sleep with you
