[Verse 1]
D A D
Burn the midnight lamp
D A7 D7
Down until the dawn

I'll keep watch until I'm sure you're coming home
D A D
Shadows play and flicker on the bedroom wall

They turn into a bad dream overnight
B7 Em7
Something could be terribly wrong

[Bridge]
A C#m C Bm
So, don't be careless love ... careless love

Don't be careless love
F#m [ C#m ]
Don't be, don't be careless ...

[Pre-Chorus]
C#m
In my dream you're running nowhere
C [ Bm ]
Every step you've taken turns to glue
Bm F#m
Walking down a spiral staircase, falling through, falling through

[Chorus]

Don't be careless love, be careless love

The lamp burns down and out

I won't be there, so look out for yourself

You're getting in deep whatever you do

Don't let me go back to sleep
