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

[chorus]
Cmaj7
I've been scarеd of
sleeping with the lights on
Em
Know she's not therе,
      C            C C  Dm
I know she's going to his flat
Dm                   F
a Capricorn, oh, fuck that
F
They say sex sells, we know that

Cmaj7
I've been scared of
sleeping with the lights on
Em
Know she's not there,
      C            C C  Dm
I know she's going to his flat
Dm                   F
a Capricorn, oh, fuck that
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                                    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?
G                       Cmaj7
  Where you gonna sleep tonight?
Cmaj7
Where will you sleep tonight?
Cmaj7                  Dm
Where will you sleep at night?
G                    Cmaj7
How do you sleep at night?

[verse 3]
Cmaj7
Cultured man
    G          Am
Venetian suntan
                      F
Red wine and club bands
                              Cmaj7
Viagra pills on the nightstand
           G
How's it feel?
                          Am
How's it feel, to be so loved?
                           F           F G
How's it feel, to be so loved yet so alone?
