 This is how I play it and sounds nice with two people playing on acoustic
 with one playing the little fills and the other rhythm. Fills 2 & 3 are
 played after Fill 1 at different points in the song just listen out for when
 they are played.
 Note: To play along with the album song you need to tune down a half step so:

 Stars leave the morning, sleep clouds my view,
  Don't let them come round here, and call for you.
  I didn't notice, it's a crime too few,
  I didn't know it's, it's a crime to feel.
 
 And I tried to sleep alone, but I couldn't do it,
   You could be sitting next to me, and I wouldn't know  it,
  If I told you was wrong,
  I don't remember  saying,
  I don't remember saying,
  I don't remember saying.
 I'll be a shadow, in the cedar room,
  And leave just a memory, alone with you,
  I didn't see that, It's a call too soon,
  I couldn't see that, it's a call to you.
 
 And I tried to sleep alone, but I couldn't do it,
   You could be sitting next to me, and I wouldn't know  it,
  If I told you you was wrong,
  I don't remember  saying,
  I don't remember saying,
 
 And I tried to sleep alone, but I couldn't do it,
   You could be sitting next to me, and I wouldn't know  it,
  If I told you you was wrong,
  I don't remember  saying,
  I don't remember saying,
  I don't remember saying.
