Wake Up chords by Joss Stone

Chords with lyrics

Album: Water for Your Soul

[Intro]

F# minorF#m
Yo, yup
F# minorF#m
Thanks for stoppin' in
       B minorBm
This ain't no pop, no Mary Poppins , not a synonym
     A augmentedA
Ah Jr. Gong and Joss Stone the modern day Janis Joplin
C#9C#9
 Come to tell you what is happenin'
     F# minorF#m
If you've been tuning in
             B minorBm
I'm assuming that you're unsatisfied unless

you don't know the root of the music
       A augmentedA
From the beginning
          C#9C#9
In this modern day test tube factory that we're livin' in

[Verse 1]

C# minorC#m
What is this nonsense I can't hear through?
This combination of money and fools
B minorBm
It's abominable
Uncontrollable
C# minorC#m
Remember the stage where the flower child rules
and music was true so the people could choose
  B minorBm
then the suits took control
Promote a new low

[Pre-Chorus]

C# minorC#m                  B minorBm
My life is a soundtrack to a beautiful movement
C# minorC#m                 B minorBm
Composed to get closer to a revolution
What are you doing?


[Chorus]

F# minorF#m
Wake up
            B minorBm
Tell me what is this nonsense
         A augmentedA
Why can't we be conscious?
            C#C#
Of what we're feeding our people
F# minorF#m
Wake up
           B minorBm
Tell me what is this nonsense
       A augmentedA
You killed the conscious
         C#C#
With your deliberate evil

[Verse 2]

C# minorC#m
What is this shit now we're forced to sit?
The greenery gone and our soul got split
B minorBm
It's incredulous
How your lyrics got prejudice
C# minorC#m
Cast your mind back to the soul out flick
When a couple of strings and a mic was it
B minorBm
It's a fashion-less show
Unbelievable

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]


[Bridge]

C# minorC#m
(First they take your mind)

Ambiguous and subliminal
                B minorBm
What does singing have to do with my abdominals?
Better read the fine print in your peripherals
C# minorC#m
(Then they take your soul)
                 B minorBm
Him and me lawyer come pen pals, suddenly I hear
funny signals
What a sneaky set of individuals
C# minorC#m
(And just before you know)

You can't see no residuals
          B minorBm
And those who say they have your back
you take it out a straight attack
and sell out for decimals
C# minorC#m
(The whole of you is owned by
Somebody else, your screamin' for help
   B minorBm
So shake up yourself, the call is comin' through)
Some truth from me to you


[Chorus]


[Outro]

F# minorF#m      B minorBm
  What's this nonsense
        A augmentedA
Can't we be conscious?
          C#C#
Of what we're feeding our, what we're feeding our
F# minorF#m        B minorBm
   What's this nonsense
        A augmentedA
Can't we be conscious?
      C#C#
Can't we be, can't we be?
F# minorF#m     B minorBm
Now wake up, wake up
          A augmentedA
All my people now wake up
       C#C#
Wake up for me, wake up for me people
F# minorF#m   B minorBm
Wake up, wake up
     A augmentedA
Wake up, wake up
        C#C#
You got to be conscious
