Verse: 
    Bb                  Gm  
I awoke that day in the afternoon  
       Eb 
And my bed was in a basket  
                        F 
Underneath the blue balloon  
        Bb                Gm 
Then a swarm of moths surrounded me  
        Eb 
And my hair was standing on its end  
              F 
With electricity  


Verse: 
       Bb               Gm 
And as I looked down on my whole life  
       Eb 
I was speeding through the forest  
           F 
On a motorbike  
   Bb 
I waved to you  
         Gm 
But you couldn't see  
         Eb 
I could hear a crowd of people 
              F 
Calling after me  



 Eb             D 
Wake up little dreamer  
      Bb      G 
It's time to rise  
     Ebm      F 
Open up your eyes   
     Ebm      F 
Open up your eyes  
     Ebm      F 
Open up your eyes  


Verse: 
           Bb                Gm 
I've been holding out for a lifeline  
        Eb 
Till I followed you  
         F 
To the depths of my own mind  
           Bb               Gm 
I've been wondering kinda scattershot  
        Eb 
Bumping into other people's lives  
                    F 
Without a second thought  


Verse: 
      Bb                Gm 
Now I do believe in the mystical  
         Eb 
That we have some vague connection  
              F 
To the other world  
         Bb 
And now what I've said  
        Gm 
May not all be true  
          Eb 
But this silver song I sing tonight  
    F 
I swear it's just for you  



 Eb             D 
Wake up little dreamer  
      Bb      G 
It's time to rise  
    Ebm       F 
Open up your eyes   
    Ebm       F 
Open up your eyes  
    Ebm       F    Bb 
Open up your eyes
