C                            Am
May you find solace in the gentle arms of sleep
             G                   F
Despite the wolves outside your door
    C                             Am
In time you will see them all as harmless
          G                     F
And their idle threats easy to ignore

       C                            Am
And if ever fate should choose to smite you
            C                  Am
Stand your ground, never walk away
              C                   Am
Please don't ever let the world defeat you
          C              Am
Don't get buried in its decay

        C                             Am
As you drift into the gauzy realm of dreams
              G                                   F
May you take comfort in the thought that you are safe
       C                            Am
For it only takes a fraction of a second
    G                F
For all of this to change


[Chorus]
F        Am
Return to me
        C                G
When slumber's fog has lifted
F        Am
Return to me
 C              G
Stronger than before

[Verse]
        C                                  Am
As you sink beneath the soothing streams of time
              G                        F
May you be thankful that you had another day
        C                                  Am
For there comes a time when each of us will enter
              G                   F
A sleep from which we will never wake

       C                            Am
And if ever fate should choose to smite you
       C                            Am
Stand your ground, never walk away
               C                   Am
Please don't ever let the world defeat you
          C              Am
Don't get buried in its decay

        C                           Am
Close your eyes now, if only for a moment
          G                F
For it's time you get some rest 
        C                                Am
The wolves are gone and nothing here can harm you
     G                         F
Let go of your fragile consciousness

[Chorus]
F        Am
Return to me
        C                G
When slumber's fog has lifted
F        Am
Return to me
 C              G
Stronger than before
