Sleeps Like A Curse

• C

C   Dm   C   Dm   C 


I'm worried I aint got the nerve to play 

I'm told my problem is I act to late 
     Dm 
that even though I know what I say 
                 C 
it may not translate 

I only ever try to avoid these games 

If I lose my baby then I lose my way 
Dm 
Lose like any gambler would 
                 C      F 
who never could wait 


                         Dm               G 
I aint competing just to hold you back 
                          Am                  F 
I'm never hiding you just follow my tracks 
                                Dm  
I have the kind of thoughts you gotta distract 
           Am              C 
I wouldn't lean on that 



I get no feeling the ordinary way 

I'm only guessing, guess I like it that way 
    Dm 
you see that habit still remains 
                 C 
of hiding from change 

the only voice that answers me 

is the voice of mine at age thirteen 
    Dm 
who learnt you never get no place 
                       C      F 
with the weakest handshake 


                 Dm               
I lie under and hide at the worst 
                  Am                  F 
I prepare for the end at the first 
                                 Dm 
I have the kind of thought that sleeps like a curse 
       Am            
and it leans on her 


F Dm F Dm Am   F 


                         Dm               G 
I aint competing just to hold you back 
                          Am                  F 
I'm never hiding you just follow my tracks 
                                Dm  
I have the kind of thoughts you got to distract 
           Am           
I wouldn't lean on that
