[G]
[Verse 1]
[Am]Wake me up, Well it's a new day breaking
[G]It's been a long one let's just face it
[F]You're holding on but the walls are shaking
[C]This could be it, Could be yours for the taking
[Am]We always seem to be living for tomorrow
[G]If you could clear your head and just swallow
[F]Our time here is all just borrowed
[C]So let me see
[Pre-Chorus 1]
[Am]Just take a deep breath and count to three
[G]All that matter is what steps are willingly
[C]What's your next play, What should you say
[F]'Cause I don't know quite honestly
[Am]Just take a deep breath and count to three
[G]All that matter is what steps are willing to be
[F]What's your next play, What should you say, 'Cause I don't know quite honestly
[Chorus]
But there c[C]omes a time when the truth gets in the way[F]
And you f[Am]ace the awful [G]ugliness at bay[F]
And you t[C]ell yourself, Hey self it's not o[F]k
Yeah there c[G]omes a time when th[Em]e truth gets in the [F]way
[Verse 2]
[Am]Let's face facts, yeah you're barely alive
[G]Come to think of it you're practically dead inside
[F]It's no suprise you don't fear it
[C]So as long as you can hear it's calling out
[Am]I'll tell you what I don't know what's worse
[G]Drowning out here or dying thirst
[F]Take a deep breath, Count it, 1 2 3, Take a look around and walls are all I see
[G]Wake me up, Well it's a new day breaking
[G]It's been a long one let's just face it
[G]Hold on 'cause the walls are shaking
[G]This could be it, Could be yours for the taking
[Chorus]
But there c[C]omes a time when the truth gets in the way[F]
And you f[Am]ace the awful [G]ugliness at bay[F]
