A SONG FOR SLEEPING BY STP, FROM THE ALBUM "SHAIN-GRA-LA-DE-DA"
4/4 time in key of B major (Goes through F# mixolydian and B minor)
Tempo is moderato
Yet another great little (if relatively unknown) acoustic number from STP
This is solely my own interpretation. I sat down at the piano, played along
with the album and figured out all the chords and then translated them to a
guitar format.
Verse 1:
(F# mixolydian)
|: F# / / / | F# / / / :|
(first time with no vocals)
Finally I've met you...
| E / / / | E / / / |
| F# / / / | F# / / / |
| E / / / | E / / / |
| F# / / / | F# / / / |
Pre-Chorus: (Switch to B minor, arpeggio)
(b-d-f#-a) (a-d-f#)
| Bm7 / / / | Asus / / / |
And when you lie...
(g-d-f#) (b-d-f#-a)
| Gmajor7/ / / | Bm7 / / / F#|
Chorus: (Switch to B major)
| G / / / | B / / / |
While I'm watching you grow...
| E / / / | A / / / |
| B / / / | B / / / |
| E / / / | A / / / |
| B / / / |
Verse 2: (Switch to F# mixolydian)
|: F# / / / | F# / / / :|
So will you tell me...
| E / / / | E / / / |
| F# / / / | F# / / / |
| E / / / | E / / / |
| F# / / / | F# / / / |
Pre-Chorus: (Switch to B minor, arpeggio)
(b-d-f#-a) (a-d-f#)
| Bm7 / / / | Asus / / / |
And when you lie...
(g-d-f#) (b-d-f#-a)
| Gmajor7/ / / | Bm7 / / / F#|
Chorus: (Switch to B major)
| G / / / | B / / / |
While I'm watching you grow...
| E / / / | A / / / |
| B / / / | B / / / |
| E / / / | A / / / |
| B / / / |
Guitar Solo in F# mixolydian. Background is:

Any corrections, especially on the bridge part, would be appreciated!
Enjoy!
