Verse
Eb
From the time we were young

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