Cmaj7
You think he'd realize
G                 Dm        Em Dm
But he's infatuated, with ideals
       Em                   Gmaj7
Of possessions and far-flung social policy
Cmaj7                   G
His daddy works on the council
G                             Dm
And missus loves the silver spoon
Dm
Swore she'd never kiss a Tory,
          G                   Cmaj7
but this boy was too good to lose

And I'll listen carefully
With ears pressed to the floor
As you make your way downstairs
You haven't got far to fall
Now it's red, now it's dead
Now it's everything she needed
Now it's four open doors
Pillows pressed under your knees
Now it's a sad, sappy sucker
To ensure happy ending

Chorus:
Cmaj7
I've been scared of sleeping with the lights on
Em                                               Dm
Know she's not there, I know she's going to his flat
Dm                F
A Capricorn, oh, fuck that
F
They say sex sells, we know that

Cmaj7
I've been scared of sleeping with the lights on
Em                                                Dm
Know she's not there, I know she's going to his flat
Dm                F
A Capricorn, oh, fuck that
F
They say sex sells, we know that

You could buy my silence
If you've got none to lose
If he's still infatuated with the truth
So will you do what's easy?
Or will you do what's right?
Please just could you let me know

G                       Cmaj7
Where will you sleep tonight?
Cmaj7
Where you gonna sleep tonight?
G                       Dm
Where will you sleep tonight?
G                       Cmaj7
Where you gonna sleep tonight?
Cmaj7
Where will you sleep tonight?
Cmaj7                  Dm
Where will you sleep at night?
G                    Cmaj7
How do you sleep at night?

Cultured man
Venetian suntan
Red wine and club bands
Viagra pills on the nightstand
How's it feel?
How's it feel to be so loved?
How's it feel to be so loved, yet so alone?

Chorus:
I've been scared of sleeping with the lights on
Know she's not there, I know she's going to his flat
A Capricorn, oh, fuck that
They say sex sells, I know that
I've been scared of sleeping with the lights off
Know she's not there, I know she's going to his flat
A Capricorn, oh, fuck that
They say sex sells, I know that
I've been scared of sleeping with the lights off
Know she's not there, I know she's going to his flat
A Capricorn, oh, fuck that
They say sex sells, I know that

Sex sells, I know that
Sex sells, I know that
Do you sleep at night?
