VERSE 1:
E G Fmaj7
When she sleeps, there is a fever dream, yeah
E G Fmaj7
It brings a night terror to harm this fragile bird
(@ "She..." Guitar 2 plays INTROa x4 here as well)
E G Fmaj7
She speaks in tongues, her words they come undone, yeah
E G Fmaj7
And with a wayward mind she struggles through the night
CHORUS 1 (+ fills)... NOTE: 77500x can also be played as an Am: 022000 (relative to the capo)

These cold nightmares, they make her worse for wear

Following CHORUS 2 is the solo (which I refuse to tab lol...
worst part of the song). Continue with the E G Fmaj7 progression
like in the verse until the lyrics kick back in with Guitar 2
behind it (playing INTROa)
During Solo: E G Fmaj7 x 2
(@ "Through..." Guitar 2 plays INTROa here as well)
E G Fmaj7
Through the night, Through the night
E G Fmaj7
Through the night, Through the night
