G
Of all the foolish things to do
           Em
I became a connoisseur of great excuse
    Cadd9
And my pessimistic past the blame
     Dsus4               D
Will never make this go away

G
Of all the foolish things I’ve said
     Em
That keep me sleepy almost dead
    Cadd9
I’m sorry if I’ve let you down
   Dsus4                          D
My eyes were closed, they’re open now

    G
I'm waking up
     Em
I am waking up
     Cadd9
I am waking up
   Dsus4    D
I awake

    G
And this has all been said before
     Em
I’ve listened but then I ignored
   Cadd9
My ears grew deaf, My head gave up
    Dsus4                    D
The junkie knows not when to stop

   G
Of all the foolish alibis
    Em
The constipated push for why
     Cadd9
I’ve had a blanket pulled over my eyes
   Dsus4                   D
Oh hush now baby don’t you cry

    G
I'm waking up
     Em
I am waking up
     Cadd9
I am waking up
   Dsus4    D
I awake

    G
I'm waking up
            Em
Coming I am waking up
               Cadd9
I'm ready I am waking up
   Dsus4    D
I awake
