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
Dada da da da daaa
