[Verse I]

BMaj7
   I work my 9 to 5

Bm6

   It's more like 8 to 4 
F#m9
   by the time I arrive
B 13

   I fall down to the floor
AMaj7
   It's time to catch a sleep 
Am6
   plus the five I got at break
Em9
   As they call me a thief
A 13
   I'm swimming in the slumber lake

[Chorus]
G7
     The Glory of this quiet
A7
     The Solitude of rest
C7
     A place to lay my head down

D7                               G7

     And not forget I'm Blessed

G Major Arpeggio

​

[Verse II]
BMaj7  

   Days becoming nights
Bm6
   Nights blend into haze
F#m9
   I just gazed outside
B 13
   To see me driving through the rain

AMaj7
   Off to find a pillow

Am6

   or an eye mask made of snow 
Em9
  come and take My hand dear
A 13

  I know where to go... 

​

[Extended Chorus]
G7
    The Glory of this quiet
A7
    The Solitude of rest
C7
    A place to lay my head down

D7

    And not forget I'm Blessed

G7
    When life is like a movie
A7
    You still need time to sleep
C7
    But quiet and a pillow

D7

    Should become the need

​

G Minor Arpeggio
