Verse
Fb
From the time we were young
G#m
We were wild-eyed dreamers
Fb G#m
And now we cautiously raise our eyes
Fb
The season has turned
F# D#m
From warm to the next
[Chorus 1]
Fb
We are wide awake now
G#m
We are wide awake now
Fb
We are wide awake now
C#
We are wide awake now
Fb G#m
We are wide awake now
[Verse 2]
Fb
There's a burden
G#m
We all must shoulder
F# B G#m Fb
So come on and put your back to the load
[Verse 3]
G#m
Tears won't help
Fb
But to water the ground
G#m Fb
Nothing, nothing will grow
G#m
So weep til you drown
F#
Or until you run dry
[Chorus 2]
Fb
We are wide awake now
C#m
We are wide awake now
Fb
We are wide awake now
C#m
We are wide awake now
Fb
Wide awake now
G#m
Wide awake now
