Decemberists - Sleepless

this is an update from thuggolfer’s version . i just gave the “f1″s and “g”s their
real names , so the transpose feature would work on the ug app .

this is a work in progress as i test out how ultimateguitar works . 1/24/14

laying into me

but this cup of wine

all salt and brine makes me sleepy
D F
a sorrow so
E Am G
a field of tears , that will never yield a single penny
D F
but i don’t know
E Am
i’ve got nothing to hold on to

Dm C fmajc Dm
wished for gold so i could buy you a palace

by the riverside
[ ch ] Fmaj/C [ /Ch ] Dm
you’d come in and i would fill your diamond chalice
C Dm
you were still alive

F E
but this cup of wine
Am G
all salt and brine makes me sleepy

a field of tears , that will never yield a single penny
D F
but i don’t know

i’ve got nothing to hold on to
