Nine - Sleeping at Last

Verse 1:
N.C.
Who am I to say what any of this means
Dm     Am
I have been sleepwalking
Gm       C
Since I was fourteen
  F       C
Now as I write my song
F      A#
I retrace my steps
Dm       Am
Honestly, it’s easier
  Gm      C
To let myself forget
     F       C
Still, I check my vital signs
    F     A#
Choked up, I realize
Dm         Am
I’ve been less than half myself
  Gm        C
For more than half my life

Chorus:
   Gm   C
Wake up
    F   A#
Fall in love again
   Gm     C
Wage war on gravity
           F          A#
There’s so much worth fighting for you’ll see
    Gm F C
Another domino falls
    F
Either way


Verse 2:
  F        C
It looks like empathy
  F       A#
To understand all sides
  Dm         Am
But I’m just trying to find myself
    Gm       C
Through someone else’s eyes
  F        C
So show me what to do
   F          A#
To restart this heart of mine
Dm     Am
How do I forgive myself
  Gm       C
For losing so much time?

Chorus:
   Gm   C
Wake up
       F   A#
Roll up your sleeves
         Gm       C
There’s a chain reaction in your heart
     F
Muscle memory
          A#
Remembering who you are
   Gm  C
Stand up
      F             A#
And fall in love again and again and again
   Gm     C
Wage war on gravity
            F          A#
There’s so much worth fighting for, you’ll see
    Gm F C
Another domino falls
      F  C Gm
And another domino falls


Verse 3:
 F      C
A little at a time
F      A#
I feel more alive
     Dm         Am
I let the scale tip and feel all of it
    Gm       C
It’s uncomfortable but right
F        C
We were born to try
  F       A#
To see each other through
      Dm         Am
To know and love ourselves and others well
      Gm      C
Is the most difficult and meaningful
        F
Work we’ll ever do
