Intro: B, E... 4X 


B                      E 
Wake me up when it's over, 
B                       E 
Wake me up when it's done, 
B                 E 
When he's gone away and taken everything, 
B       E 
Wake me up. 



Wake me up when the skies are clearing, 
When the water is still, 
'cause I will not watch the ships sail away so, 
Please say you will. 



A          E         F# 
If it were any other day, 
A              E              B  E  B  E 
This wouldn't get the best of me. 



But today I'm not so strong, 
So lay me down with a sad song, 
And when it stops then you know I've been, 
Gone too long. 



But don't shake me awake, 
Don't bend me or I will break, 
Come find me somewhere between my dreams, 
With the sun on my face. 


A             E             F# 
I will still feel it later on, 
         A              E     B E B E B E B E... 
But for now I'd rather be asleep.
