Verse 1:
Bsus4 Aadd9
Sometimes I wake up, and I’m falling asleep,

E7no5
Yes I wake up,
Bsus4
Smiling,
Verse 2:
Bsus4 Aadd9

Yes I wake up,
Bsus4
Smiling,

I’m okay, I’ve seen the lighter side of life,

Bsus4 E5 Bsus4
Verse 3:
Bsus4 Aadd9

E7no5
And I move,
E7no5
And I wake up,
Bsus4
Smiling,
Pre-Chorus:
Emaj Abminaug5+9
So what? I feel fine,
F#min Emaj Abminaug5+9
I’m okay, I’ve seen the lighter side of life,
Emaj Abminaug5+9
I’m alright, I feel good,
F#min Emaj Bsus4
So I’ll do, well it’s time to stop moving,
Chorus:
Aadd9 F#min
And this could be my last chance,
Aadd9 F#min
This may be my only chance,
Aadd9 F#min
And this could be my last chance,
Aadd9 F#min Bsus4
So no more keeping my feet on the ground,
Note: I think there is no acoustic guitar hear, it’s just electric
guitar with the wah-wah pedals again. But the bass guitar give a
clue for the acoustic guitar. So the end goes like this, strum
Aadd9 once then pull to Bsus4.
Instrumental:
Aadd9 Bsus4 Aadd9 Bsus4
