[Verse 1]
Cmaj7
You think he'd realize
G D Em D
But he's infatuated, with ideas
Em D Gmaj7 Cmaj7
Of possessions and far-flung social policies
Cmaj7 G
His daddy works on the council
G Dm
His missus loves the silver spoon
Dm
Swore she'd never kiss a Tory,
G Cmaj7
but this boy was too good to lose
Cmaj7 G
And I'll listen caref'lly
G Dm
With ears pressed to the floor
Dm
As you make your way downstairs
G Cmaj7
You haven't got far to fall
Cmaj7
Now it's red, now it's death
Cmaj7
Now it's everything she needed
Cmaj7 G
Now it's four, open doors
G
Pillows pressed under your knees
Dm
Now it's a sad, sappy sucker
G C
To ensure her the ending
[Interlude]

[Chorus]
Cmaj7
I've been scarеd of sleeping
with the lights off
Em C
Know she's not therе, I know
C C Dm
she's going to his flat
Dm F
A Capricorn, oh, f*ck her
F
They say sex sells, we know that
Cmaj7
I've been scared of sleeping
with the lights off
Em C
Know she's not there, I know
C C Dm
she's going to his flat
Dm F
A Capricorn, oh, f*ck her
F
They say sex sells, we know that
[Verse 2]
Cmaj7 G
You could buy my silence
G Dm
If you've got none to lose
Dm N.C. Cmaj7
If he's still infatuated with the truth
Cmaj7 G
So will you do what's easy?
G Dm
Or will you do what's right?
Dm
Please just could you let me know
[Hook]
G Cmaj7
Where will you sleep tonight?
Cmaj7
Where you gonna sleep tonight?
G Dm
Where will you sleep tonight?
Dm
G Cmaj7
Where you gonna sleep tonight?
Cmaj7
Where will you sleep tonight?
Cmaj7 Dm
Where will you sleep at night?
Dm
G Cmaj7
How do you sleep at night?
[Verse 3]
Cmaj7
Cultured man
G Am
Venetian suntan
Am F
Red wine and club bands
F Cmaj7
Viagra pills on the nightstand
Cmaj7 G
How's it feel?
G Am
How's it feel, to be so loved?
Am F F G
How's it feel, to be so loved yet so alone?
F G
yet so alone?
[Chorus]
