	  		Lullaby - Growing up in public (2014) - 
Professor green ft Tori kelly 
Standard tuning -  
 (I play on 1st but it's open to interpret) 
In the Instrumental part Tori sings a melody similar to emeli sande's in read all about 
it, if you listen to each song you'll pick it up 

Em                  D               G 
All the times I have layed in your life 
           Em          D                  C 
When your love kept me safe through the night 
         Em          D             G 
All the time, I was sure you were mine 
      C            D           Em 
And before time demands our goodbye 
        C           D    G 
Can you sing me a last lullaby? 


Em                              D 
It's been a while since I last dreamt 
                 G 
Barely remember what it's like to dream 
                    Em 
Finding it hard to get to sleep, too stressed 
        D                         Am 
And there ain't anyone to sing a lullaby to me 
                      Em 
Pretend shit doesn't get to me 
                 D                G 
And I suffer in silence when I'm hurting 
                                          C 
A man's problems are his own And it's my burden 
                   D 
Tossing and turning, trying to get to sleep 
Em 
But I find it hard to switch off when my mind's working 
                       D 
I ponder on things I shouldn't ponder on 
 G                                    Em 
Off the rails, my train of thought's wandering 
            D 
Sick of pretending to be so happy 
     C 
All the while my anxiety's away at me 
     Em                    D 
My skin crawling, I look up to the sky 
       G 
And it falls, the walls close in and it's 
   Em                     D 
As if all the good in my life disappears 
       C 
In an instant, that thing is just so distant 
         Em                               D 
So seeing the ones who I love, the ones who love me 
 G 
But I don't wanna tell em how I feel in case they judge me 
         C       D 
It's just me, wish I could let somebody in 
                   Em 
But I ain't ever been too trusting 


D                                 G 
All the times I have layed in your life 
          Em         D                    C 
When your love kept me safe through the night 
        Em         D               G 
All the time, I was sure you were mine 
      C          D              Em 
And before time demands our goodbye 
       C               D    Em 
Can you sing me a last lullaby?

                     D 
I've barely had any sleep when I get up 
  G 
Sick of all these nightmares and these night terrors 
                    D 
Like it's only when I'm in heaven that I sleep better 
              C 
Might sleep better when I get up, I'm weak 
   Em                   G 
It just makes my day harder, I wonder if 
                                             C 
It would've been any different if I had a father that I 
                 D                              Em 
Could it have helped shape the way that I grew? But the point of things I never 
                                                 D 
 have went from Being a reason for the things that I do 
                   G 
To just being an excuse that I'd use 
                    Em                       D 
I've gotta take responsibility for the things I do 
                     C 
Find something other than negativity for my fuel 
       Em                            D 
But I feed off it, even when I don't seem bothered 
    G 
I hide everything that's going on inside 
                  C                               D 
Guess it's been a while since I've been honest, I need help 
        Em 
But I deny it and even lie to myself like I'm fine 

D                       G 
All the times I have layed in your life 
         Em            D                  C 
When your love kept me safe through the night 
        Em          D             G 
All the time, I was sure you were mine 
      C           D           Em 
And before time demands our goodbye

Can you sing me a last lullaby 


                                          D 
I just wish someone would tell me it would be OK 
            G 
But pessimism leads me to believe that it won't 
     Em                    D 
To see even a glimmer of hope in the darkness 
       Am 
Is hard and depression is a slippery slope 
                            D 
I don't wanna do what my dad did with a rope, though 
     Gm                          G 
So I carry on even though it's hard to 
     C                                D 
The only thing that's definite is death and things always change 
                            Em 
As long as you give em a chance to 

                   D            G 
All the times I have layed in your life 
           Em           D                 C 
When your love kept me safe through the night 
         Em        D             G 
All the time, I was sure you were mine 
      C             D          Em 
And before time demands our goodbye 
        C         D        Em 
Can you sing me a last lullaby?
