[Verse 1]
E C#m
One day I slowly floated away
E C#m
One day I slowly floated away
E
All the war horses wore rubber bands
B
To hide their hooves from sinking sand
E
The commander in charge was hoping that
B
Their destiny was not to die
[Chorus]
G#m
Wake up in the morning I shall
E
Wake up and so shall you
G#m
And I wake up, the sun is beautiful
E G#m
And it is warming you and I
E G#m
Fragile as we lie
[Verse 2]
E C#m
Hard to foresee the future our bodies are growing thin
E C#m
Glimpsing the peeling paint of the nurse's ivory chin
E
You've got a lot of nerve coming here
B
Your eyes are beating rhythms way
E
Faster than the speeding bullet that
B
Took the life of your radio
[Chorus]
G#m
Wake up in the morning I shall
E
Wake up and so shall you
G#m
And I wake up, the sun is beautiful
E G#m
And it is warming you and I
E G#m
Fragile as we lie
[Bridge]
F#
And in the corner chair
C#m
Soft and soap-scented
F# C#m
My darling cries apologies
F#
We foresee the mercy
C#m
That's been shown my young limbs
F# C#m
Will not go unthanked or unseen
[Chorus]
G#m
Wake up in the morning I shall
E
Wake up and so shall you
G#m
And I wake up, the sun is beautiful
E G#m
And it is warming you and I
E G#m
Fragile as we lie
[Outro]
G#m E G#m
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
G#m E G#m
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
