Verse
Ab
From the time we were young

We were wild-eyed dreamers
Ab Cm
And now we cautiously raise our eyes
Ab
The season has turned
A# Gm
From warm to the next
[Chorus 1]

We are wide awake now
Cm
We are wide awake now

We are wide awake now

We are wide awake now
Ab Cm
We are wide awake now
[Verse 2]

There's a burden
Cm
We all must shoulder
A# D# Cm Ab
So come on and put your back to the load
[Verse 3]
Cm
Tears won't help
Ab
But to water the ground
Cm Ab
Nothing, nothing will grow
Cm
So weep til you drown
A#
Or until you run dry
[Chorus 2]

We are wide awake now
Fm
We are wide awake now

We are wide awake now

We are wide awake now
Ab
Wide awake now
Cm
Wide awake now
