Verse:

B[G]
If I could make a wish
D#7[B7]
I think I'd pass
E[C] Em[Cm] B[G]
Can't think of anything I need

B[G]
No cigarettes, no sleep
D#7[B7]
No light, no sound
E[C] Em[Cm] B[G]
Nothing to eat, no books to read

D#m[Bm]
Making love with you
Em[Cm] B[G]
Has left me peaceful, warm, and tired
D#m[Bm]
What more could I ask
Em[Cm] B[G]
There's nothing left to be desired

Peace came upon me and it leaves me weak

So sleep, silent angel, go to sleep

All I need is the air that I breathe
