[Verse 1]
Am       G                F              C
   Had a dream that I was following your ghost
Am               G                F                   C
   Stripped your closets bare and spread out all your clothes
Am                G                F                 C
   You smiled and waved and then I sadly watched you go
Am                 G               F
   To Give up what you cherish the most
 
[Chorus]
             C                  G
Don’t Lay Me Down - Don’t Fall Asleep
    Am             G     F
I’m drowning and I can’t speak
              C                G
Don’t Wake me Up - Don’t Fall Asleep
         Am    G       F
Leave me happy in your dreams
              C
Don’t Wake me Up

[Verse 2]
Am           G               F                C
   Found the letters in your sister’s old suitcase
Am             G                 F               C
   It broke my heart to find she died on my birthday
Am           G            F            C
   Alone and broken on an Illinois Highway
Am             G             F
   Your mother never was the same
 
[Chorus]
             C                  G
Don’t Lay Me Down - Don’t Fall Asleep
    Am             G     F
I’m drowning and I can’t speak
              C                G
Don’t Wake me Up - Don’t Fall Asleep
         Am    G       F
Leave me happy in your dreams
              C
Don’t Wake me Up

[Verse 3]
Am              G               F               C
   Drove to the desеrt house to say my last goodbye
Am       G                  F                C
   I ran evеry light didn’t make it there in time
Am         G                F            C
   Hand in hand we’ll be forever there entwined
Am            G                 F
   A toast to those who gave us life
Am*           G*                F*
   A toast to those who gave us life
 
[Chorus]
             C*                 G*
Don’t Lay Me Down - Don’t Fall Asleep
    Am*            G*    F*
I’m drowning and I can’t speak
              C*               G*
Don’t Wake me Up - Don’t Fall Asleep
         Am*   G*      F*
Leave me happy in your dreams



Had a dream that I was following your ghost
Stripped your closets bare and spread out all your clothes
You smiled and waved and then I sadly watched you go
To give up what you cherish the most
Don't lay me down
Don't fall asleep
I'm drowning and I can't speak
Don't wake me up
Don't fall asleep
Leave me happy in your dreams
Don't wake me up
Found the letters in your sister's old suitcase
It broke my heart to find she died on my birthday
Alone and broken on an Illinois Highway
Your mother never was the same
Don't lay me down
Don't fall asleep
I'm drowning and I can't speak
Don't wake me up
Don't fall asleep
Leave me happy in your dreams
Don't wake me up
Drove to the desеrt house to say my last goodbye
I ran evеry light didn't make it there in time
Hand in hand we'll be forever there entwined
A toast to those who gave us life
A toast to those who gave us life
Don't lay me down
Don't fall asleep
I'm drowning and I can't speak
Don't wake me up
Don't fall asleep
Leave me happy in your dreams
