(Strumming)
Bbmin
So many nights I lay awake
Can't sleep
Ebmin                       Fmin
I lay here thinkin' 'bout a woman
Bbmin
I used to love
Can't sleep but no good to count sheep
Ebmin               Fmin
I'll just count the worries
Bbmin
That I've got plenty of

(Staccato)
Bbmin
And how many times
Must I be the fool
Before I can make it
               Ebmin Fmin
Oh, make it on home
Bbmin
I've got to find a place to sing my words
                                 Ebmin
Is there nobody listening to my song?

Bbmin
You talk about a life
Been searching for the key
Ebmin             Fmin
But can't find an answer
Bbmin
To comfort me

Bbmin
I ask myself about love
Can't even find the door
Ebmin           Fmin
To take me to a place
Bbmin
I've never seen before

Bbmin
And how many times
Must I be the fool
Before I can make it
               Ebmin Fmin
Oh, make it on home
Bbmin
I've got to find a place to sing my words
                                 Ebmin (hold)
Is there nobody listening to my song?
