Verse 1:
 C                   D/F#
Been living down the wrong side of town
         F               C      G
I should move up to the right
C     D/F#     F           C         G
Maybe I should make a move tonight

Verse 2:
C           D/F#
All alone I hear a sound
     F                     F
The voice within said it’s just the wind
  C              D/F#           F             F
A ghost of mist closes, and the early morning
          D/F# D/F#   F   F
Is waking uuuuuuuuuuuuup     And the ghost he sings


Chorus:

C        D/F#
Wake up, wake up
        F                C     G
You’re allowed to let it out
C      D/F#              F  (alternate with root note F,E,F)
Nobody knows why you’re thinking

C        D/F#
Wake up, wake up
    F              C    G
And bail the water out
C        D/F#     F       F
Before you start sinking
              D/F#  D/F#    F  F
It’s just the wiiiiiiiiiiiiind   Says the voice within
