Andy Morgan (Maryjoan.Reutter@Law.UC.Edu) suggests using open C and a natural (barr) F. He added a couple of chord changes that have been incorporated and suggested chord charts found at the end of the song.
F/C F/C F/C F/C
bass: rest for 2 measures. Slide from C to F on E string
F / C
There's a lot for me to say
F / C F / C E
About a hundred ways for me to wrap my words around your face
F / C
But it won't do any good
F / C F / C E / E7
I never really could convince you that when I said to leave I meant "Please stay"
F
There I've said it now too late
Fm
It's late, I've got to get up early.
(chorus)
C G
Hey,
C C3/
I'm dying to get some sleep, baby / It seems crazy to me, maybe
G1(B1) A G
I'd like to turn to stone tonight
C C3/
And try and forget that day that I chased you away, baby
G1(B1) A G
Will you be coming home tonight?
Interlude: F/C F/C F/C E
F / C F / C
If I'm sittin' in some bar or driving in my car
F / C E
I don't really think of you at all
F / C F / C
But back here in my room with morning comin' soon
F / C E
I roll around and wonder where you are
F F
And where you'd rather be this late / Too late, I've got to get up early
C G
And,
C C3/
I'm dying to get some sleep, baby / It seems crazy to me, maybe
G1(B1) Am G
I'd love to turn to stone tonight
C C3/G1(B1) Am
And try and forget that day that I lost you now I know what it's like to be alone
G G
Will you be coming home?
Interlude: F/C F/C F/C E
F/C F/C F/C E
F / C F / C
It's not my history / This songs not about me at all
F / C E
Just trying to conjure up some fantasy
F F
Do you believe me now / This late, too late I've got to get up early
C G
Hey,
C C2/
I'm dying to get some sleep, baby / It seems crazy to me, maybe
C1/G1(B1) Am G
I'd love to turn to stone tonight
C C3/G1(B1) Am
And try and forget that day that I lost you now I know what it's like to be alone
G
Will you be coming home?
C C2/
Tryin' to get some sleep, sleep, sleep
C1/G1(B1) Am G
When are you comin' home?
Close: F/C F/C F/C E
Also suggested: Instead of the “C1/G1(B1) Am G” line, play
C 1/ B1(Am) Am G
“C”
