There’s you you’re sleeping over there

Whilst me, I’m sitting here

Verse 2:
Let him who fears his heart alone
Stand up and make a speech
For him perhaps an emperor’s throne
If he could only speak
Far too few and far too fallow
Ashamed I’ll heed the cry
Be with me when I need a drink
Be with me when I die
[repeat refrain]
Coda:
(organ solo over intro chord progression to fade)
— another ace 60’s tab from Andrew Rogers
