Hi Gary..would you settle for the WEBB PIERCE version?

YOU'RE THE REASON (I DON'T SLEEP AT NIGHT) - Recorded by Webb Pierce

Words and music by Bobby Edwards, Mildred Imes, Fred Henley & Terry Fell

[D] I just lay here at night; (I) toss and I turn

[G] Lovin' you so - how my heart yearns

[D] You're The Reason [A7] I Don't Sleep At [D] Night [A7]

[D] Walkin' the floor; feelin' so blue

[G] Smoke cigarettes ... and drink coffee, too

[D] You're The Reason [A7] I Don't Sleep At [D] Night.

Refrain: I'm [G] betting you're not losing ... [D] sleep over me

But [G] if I'm wrong, don't fail to call

[D] Come over and a-keep me [A7] company; ...

Sometimes I [D] go for a walk; I take a look at the moon

[G] I strum my guitar and I sing pretty tunes

Honey, [D] You're The Reason [A7] I Don't Sleep At [D] Night.

Repeat Refrain: TAG: Honey, [D] You're The Reason [A7] I Don't Sleep At [D] Night.

Enjoy! Gene Graham...
