Endless Sleep
Recorded by Hank Williams Jr.
Written by Judy Reynolds and Dolores Nance
C 
The night was black rain falling down
 
Looked for my baby she's  
G7 
nowhere 
 
 
C 
around
I traced her footsteps down to the shore
 
Afraid she's gone for  
G7 
ever-
C 
more
 
I  
F 
looked at the sea and it seemed to say
C 
I took your baby from  
G7 
you 
 
a
C 
way
F 
I heard a voice crying in the deep
C 
Come join me baby in my  
G7 
endless 
 
 
C 
sleep
Why did we quarrel why did we fight
 
Why did I leave her  
G7 
alone 
 
to
C 
night
That's why her footsteps ran into the sea
 
That's why my baby has  
G7 
gone from  
C 
me
Repeat #2
Ran in the water heart full of fear
 
There in the breakers I  
G7 
saw her  
C 
near
Reached for my darling held her to me
 
Stole her away from the  
G7 
angry 
 
 
C 
sea
F 
Well I looked at the sea and it seemed to say
C 
You took your baby from  
G7 
me 
 
a
C 
way
F 
My heart cried out she's mine to keep
C 
I saved my baby from an  
G7 
endless 
 
 
C 
sleep

Who is Hank Williams Jr.?
- Randall Hank Williams (born May 26, 1949), known professionally as Hank Williams Jr. or Bocephus, is an American singer-songwriter and musician. His musical style is often considered a blend of Southern rock, blues, and country. He is the son of country music legend Hank Williams.
Williams began his career following in his famed father's footsteps, covering his father's songs and imitating his father's style. Williams' first television appearance was in a 1964 episode of ABC's The Jimmy Dean Show, in which at age fourteen he sang several songs associated with his father. Later that year, he was a guest star on Shindig!.Williams' style evolved slowly as he struggled to find his own voice and place within country music. This was interrupted by a near-fatal fall off the side of Ajax Peak in Montana on August 8, 1975. After an extended recovery, he challenged the country music establishment with a blend of country, rock, and blues. As a multi-instrumentalist, Williams' repertoire of skills includes guitar, bass guitar, upright bass, steel guitar, banjo, dobro, piano, keyboards, saxophone, harmonica, fiddle, and drums.From 1989 through October 2011, his song "All My Rowdy Friends Are Coming Over Tonight", refashioned as "All My Rowdy Friends Are Here on Monday Night", had been used to open broadcasts of Monday Night Football until it was pulled after Williams made controversial and widely criticized comments comparing President Barack Obama to Adolf Hitler. The song returned to open the show in 2017 although it was temporarily removed in 2020.On August 12, 2020, Williams was selected to be inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame.
