Intro: B, E... 4X


B                      E
Wake me up when it's over,
B                       E
Wake me up when it's done,
B                 E
When he's gone away and taken everything,
B       E
Wake me up.



Wake me up when the skies are clearing,
When the water is still,
'cause I will not watch the ships sail away so,
Please say you will.



A          E         F#
If it were any other day,
A              E              B  E  B  E
This wouldn't get the best of me.



But today I'm not so strong,
So lay me down with a sad song,
And when it stops then you know I've been,
Gone too long.



But don't shake me awake,
Don't bend me or I will break,
Come find me somewhere between my dreams,
With the sun on my face.


A             E             F#
I will still feel it later on,
         A              E     B E B E B E B E...
But for now I'd rather be asleep.
