Chords with lyrics
Wake Up
The Ditty Bops
Transcribed by Christine James ([email protected])
As close as I can get it. It doesn't sound right if you play it
alongside the actual recording, but to my mind it works if you don't.
(And why would you anyway?) Besides, I figure if I keep posting my
wonky tabs, Amanda & Abby will feel compelled to set the record
straight with an official sheet music book. :)
E MajorE 
A minorAm
Wake up and smell the coffee
Rise and shine
The early bird gets the worm
Strike while the iron's hot
And whistle while you work
Stay on the trail
Keep your hands and arms inside the train
Don't stray
Watch your step
And wipe your feet
Draw inside the lines
A minorAm 
C majorC
What if you didn't know where the bad side of town was
Where would you wander to
So many places from which to choose
Would you let yourself [E MajorE] be
E MajorE A minorAm
Don't cause a scene
Mind your manners
Speak only if spoken to
You know what you are not to do
Watch and learn
A minorAm C majorC
What if you never were short for time
All meetings cancelled clocks stopped at nine
Without alarms the silence beams
Invited to [E MajorE] be
What if you never heard a word they say
And up were down and night were day
I bet you'd have a lot more time to play
If you'd let yourself [E MajorE] go [A minorAm] [E MajorE] [A minorAm]
E MajorE A minorAm
Breathe deep
Speak out
Make up your mind
Be brave
Follow your dreams
Listen to your heart
Close your eyes
Make a wish
