Unsleeping Eye
By The Band Of Heathens
Written By Gordy Quist
3/18/2010
G
Sleep don’t overtake me here, don’t run me down like this
G
I got miles before they gonna lay me down I ain’t ready yet
C
No I ain’t there yet
G
Quaalude Highway hypnotizing the lines across my face
G
One more sign before my mind begins hallucinating
C
Can’t stay awake
D G
So give me something strong and let the night roll on to day
Chorus:
D G
Unsleeping eye, don’t you fail me now
D G
Crack a window wide and put your right foot down
Am C
So daydream through the night
G
But keep them wheels a spinning round and round
D G
Unsleeping eye, say don’t you fail me now
There’s a girl at home she waiting up ‘til dawn
Lord she could use some sleep
I flash my brights and I dim my lights
I sink down a little deeper into my seat
Just to get back home this old rolling stone
Gone a thousand miles a night
Grant me speed and eyes to see my lonely girl tonight
She’s so outta sight
Lord don’t make me sleep like a refugee it ain’t right
Chorus
Bridge:
C
Blacktop asphalt grooving past all the rhythm in the lines
C
I’m locked down deep into the pocket, the sunrise keeping my time
C
All I ask is a tank of gas and a cup of coffee strong
C
Highway moon gonna keep me moving, I’m driving all night long
Chorus
