If You Talk In Your Sleep Chords

Don Jiskra changed the Am to A throughout to match Del McCoury's 2023 rendition
 
[Verse 1]
  A
I know you're a lonely woman and I love you
    A
But someone else is waiting and he owns you
   C                   D        C                       D
If he should ever wake up, make sure that your story is straight love
 
[Chorus]
       F#m            D           E          A
If you   talk in your sleep don't mention my name
           F#m            D        E             A
And if you   walk in your sleep forget where you came
 
[Verse 2]
A
Walking every night here in the shadows
A
So afraid that sometime he may follow
        C                       D
There's always the chance he'll find us
  C               D
I don't need to remind you
 
[Chorus]
       F#m            D           E          A
If you   talk in your sleep don't mention my name
           F#m            D        E             A
And if you   walk in your sleep forget where you came
 
[Verse 3]
A
Love is so much sweeter when it's borrowed
     A
I'll feel a little easier tomorrow
      C                D        C               D
Don't give our secret away, be careful what you say
 
[Chorus]
       F#m            D           E          A
If you   talk in your sleep don't mention my name
           F#m            D        E             A
And if you   walk in your sleep forget where you came
 
[Outro]
A
  Forget where you came, now
A
  Forget where you came
A
  Don't mention my name
A
  Don't mention my name
A
  Forget where you came
 
(repeat and fade)
