Sleeping With the Television On

(Alan Alone V1)
A D A
I remember the sweet dreams when I was just a baby
E D A
Sleeping with the television on
A D A
With my mother and father, their love, it would not last
E D A
Sleeping with the television on
E/G# A
Don't ask me why they put a man up on the moon
E/G# A
Or why my father turned off the six 'o clock news
D
Or why he couldn't face Viet Nam,
A E
While my mother, she would cry, "Don't ask me why"
D E/G# A /// ////
We were sleeping with the television on

(Rhythm Section start on V2)
A D A
The world was restless as I tossed and turned
E/G# D A
Sleeping with the television on
A D A
There was war in the living room when I was just a kid
E/G# D A
Sleeping with the television on
E A
Don't ask me why our black and white turned into color
E A
Why the Lone Ranger still has Tonto while my family lost each other
D
And why in my dreams I still can see the day
A
That Elvis Presley died
E
Don't ask my why
D E/G# A
I was sleeping with the television on

Inst Channel: (A Major Walk up) D/// //// [A E/G#] A/// ////

V2.
A D A
Now, I'm watching the re-runs and I'm miles away
E/G# D A
Sleeping with the television on
A D A
The years have come and gone but, not that much has changed
E D A
Sleeping with the television on
E A
Don't ask me why I'm in this motel room alone
E A
I'm trying to find myself a station and get you on the telephone
D A
I wanna' tell you that I love you, let you know I'm still alive
E
Don't ask me why
D E/G# A
I'm sleeping with the television on

Inst Channel: (A Major Walk up) D/// //// [A E/G#] A/// ////
