INTRO: E G A E (2x)
I'm so tired[Abm] of not [A]moving
Now my [G]skin is [A]stiff and [E]sore
And I'm so tired[Abm] of not loo[A]king
At that [G]thing that [A]we ig[E]nore
And I'm so nervous[Abm] that you'll see me see[A]ing
If you [G]turn your [A]face any[E]more
And I'm so [Abm]careful to keep your [A]secrets
What do I [G]do this f[A]or
CHORUS:
Wake [E]up,[G] it's getting lat[A]e and the sun is on the r[E]ise
And it's time to open up those [G]blinds and let it shine
On those [A]sleeping dogs you let [E]lie[G][A][E]
I always wonder[Abm]ed where you got the no[A]tion
That your [G]silence [A]does not [E]hurt
'Cause I can se[Abm]e the truth when you lean [A]over
It's in the [G]pocket of your [A]shirt[E]
And unspoken,[Abm] it might feel like [A]mercy
But all it [G]means is there's [A]things you've never [E]said
It only means [Abm]I have no way of know[A]ing
If it's all [G]in my [A]head
CHORUS:
Wake [E]up,[G] it's getting late[A] and the sun is in the sk[E]y
And it's time to open up those [G]blinds and let it shine
On those[A] sleeping dogs,[G] sleeping [A]dogs you let [E]lie[A][B][A]
You know [B]why
INSTRUMENTAL: A E G A E G A E
And for a long time[Abm], I don't think you [A]ever really knew[G]
About the [A]state that I was [E]in
And I guess that would be [Abm]my fault, babe
'Cause [A]all I ever showed you was [G]skin, I sure did [A]show you [E]some skin
Now you got that[Abm] x?ray close?[A]up
You got that [G]micro[A]scope to my [E]gut
And that is not a[Abm], a one way of[A]fer
So I'll tell you what,[G] tell you [A]what
CHORUS:
Wake [E]up,[G] it's getting late[A] and the sun is in the [E]sky
And I'm here to open up those b[G]linds and let it shine
You may [A]be sleeping soundly, but I [G]will not [A]let you [E]lie
Let you [G]lie [A] (woof)[G][A]
Wake [E]up, I will not let you [G]
Sleeping dogs, wake [A]up, I will not let you [G]lie
Wake [E]up,[G] I will not let you
Sleeping dog, you may be [A]sleeping soundly, sleeping [G]soundly
Wake [E]up, I will not let you[G]
Sleeping dog, wake [A]up, I will not let you [E]lie
Wake up, it's getting so late[G]
Sleeping dog, you may be [A]sleeping soundly, but I [G]will not [A]let you [E]
I'm so tired[Abm] of not [A]moving
