Sleep Drifter by King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard







                                        Sleep Drifter






 
Obviously a microtonal flying banana, or just a microtonal guitar, would be the best option to play this on.
You will need to tweek the tabs a bit yourself if you are playing on a microtonal guitar.

Drifting in and out of sleep
Is my favourite state to be
I can see you next to me
And it is lovely
Sleep drifter, sleep drifter
I can feel you touch me
And I can hear you breathing
Please no one wake me
When I'm sleep drifting
Drifting in and out of sleep
Reality begins to fray
You'll become so close to me
In a hotel far away
Sleep drifter, sleep drifter
I can know you're right here
And I can catch your crying tear
We can be so close, dear
When I'm sleep drifting
Drifting in and out of sleep
Is my favourite state to be
I can see you next to me
And it is lovely
Sleep drifter, sleep drifter
I can feel you touch me
And I can hear you breathing
Please no one wake me
When I'm sleep drifting
I can know you're right here
And I can catch your crying tear
We can be so close, dear
When I'm sleep drifting
I can feel you touch me
And I can hear you breathing
Please no one wake me
When I'm sleep drifting
Sleep drifter, sleep drifter
Sleep drifter, sleep drifter
Sleep drifter, sleep drifter
Sleep drifter, sleep drifter
I can feel you touch me
And I can hear you breathing
Please no one wake me
When I'm sleep drifting

Tuning: E A D G B E

This is a tab for Sleep Drifter, tabbed out on a microtonal guitar, fretted identically to the way Gizz fret
their guitars (24 TET). This means there will be microtonal notes in this tab which will be written in
brackets  e.g. (X.5). For example, the fret halfway between the first and second frets would be written as
(1.5) on the tab.
 
The tuning is C# F# C# F# B e.

Not certain if this is correct as is very quiet and indistinct but it sounds okay.

It continues for a few more seconds but it is very indistinct so I didn't bother to tab that bit out. I don't
think it is necessary to be able to play along to the song.
 



Drifting in and out of sleep
Is my favourite state to be
I can see you next to me
And it is lovely
Sleep drifter, sleep drifter
I can feel you touch me
And I can hear you breathing
Please no one wake me
When I'm sleep drifting
Drifting in and out of sleep
Reality begins to fray
You'll become so close to me
In a hotel far away
Sleep drifter, sleep drifter
I can know you're right here
And I can catch your crying tear
We can be so close, dear
When I'm sleep drifting
Drifting in and out of sleep
Is my favourite state to be
I can see you next to me
And it is lovely
Sleep drifter, sleep drifter
I can feel you touch me
And I can hear you breathing
Please no one wake me
When I'm sleep drifting
I can know you're right here
And I can catch your crying tear
We can be so close, dear
When I'm sleep drifting
I can feel you touch me
And I can hear you breathing
Please no one wake me
When I'm sleep drifting
Sleep drifter, sleep drifter
Sleep drifter, sleep drifter
Sleep drifter, sleep drifter
Sleep drifter, sleep drifter
I can feel you touch me
And I can hear you breathing
Please no one wake me
When I'm sleep drifting
