Stay Awake
guitar chords lyrics
Chords by Michael Estornell
-Verse 1:
D A G D
It's like I don't have the patience
A G
Or the willpower to separate myself
A D
From this inundated era I've been dealt
And all across the nation
A G
Pixelated screens light up the night
A D
Of insomniacs and night owls alike
-Chorus:
Bm A
But we can turn off the lights; the sun's comin' up
G A
No dreams tonight to interrupt
Bm D A
Turn off the alarm before it sounds
Bm A G A D
Get out of bed without putting your head down, down
-Verse 2:
D A G D
I've been closing my eyes real tight
A G
But the space between my lids betrays the light
A D
So I'm up again, I've lost the will to fight
The scrolling information
A G
Pulls me in and holds me in a trance
A D
Link to link, no I don't stand a chance
-Chorus
-Bridge:
G D
Stay awake with me
G D
In the darkness you will see
Bm A G A D
What I've known all along, all along
-Verse 3 (Quiet strumming):
D A G D
Baby when you're sleeping
A G
I wonder if you see me in your dreams
A D
Do you know exactly what it means
(Louder)
Maybe we are falling
A G
And when I hit the ground I disappear
A G (single note)
But you open up your eyes and I'm still here
-Chorus, then:
Bm A G A D ~
Down, down, down
