Wake me up when it's over,
A D
Wake me up when it's done,
A D
When he's gone away and taken everything,
A D
Wake me up.
A D
Wake me up when the skies are clearing,
A D
When the water is still,
A D
'cause I will not watch the ships sail away so,
A D
Please say you will.
G D E
If it were any other day,
G D A D
This wouldn't get the best of me.
A D
But today I'm not so strong,
A D
So lay me down with a sad song,
A D
And when it stops then you know I've been
A D
Gone too long.
A D
But don't shake me awake,
A D
Don't bend me or I will break,
A D
Come find me somewhere between my dreams,
A D
With the sun on my face.
G D E
I will still feel it later on,
G D A D
But for now I'd rather be asleep.
