From the film - An Inconvenient Truth


                B\E
Have I been sleeping?
  Asus2                            E
I've been so still, afraid of crumblin'
                B\E
Have I been careless?
  Asus2                           E
Dismissing all the distant rumblings


Asus2                          
Take me where I am supposed to be
  F#m
To comprehend the things that I can't see


                       E
CHORUS: Cos I need to move
                      B
	I need to wake up
                    F#m
	I need to change 
                       Asus2
	I need to shake up 
                        E
	I need to speak out 
                           B
	Somethin's got to break up 
                   F#m
	I've been asleep 
                     Asus2  B   Asus2   E
	And I need to wake up now


          B\E
And as a child
  Asus2                 E
I danced like it was 1999
               B\E
My dreams were wild
   Asus2             
The promise of this new world
           E
Would be mine


Asus2
Now I am throwing off the carelessness of youth
  F#m
To listen to an inconvenient truth

                        E
CHORUS: That I need to move
                      B
	I need to wake up
                      F#m
	I need to change
                       Asus2
	I need to shake up
                         E
	I need to speak out
                           B
	Somethin's got to break up
                   F#m
	I've been asleep
                     Asus2  B   A
	And I need to wake up now

B
I am not an island
          Asus2
I am not alone
B
I am my intentions
                  Asus2
Trapped here in this flesh and bone

                       E
CHORUS: And I need to move
                       B
	I need to wake up
                     F#m
	I need to change
                      Asus2
	I need to shake up
                        E
	I need to speak out
                           B
	Somethin's got to break up
                    F#m
	I've been asleep
                     Asus2  B    E
	And I need to wake up now

B           F#m
I want a change
           Asus2            
I need to shake up
           E
I need to speak out
                      B
Oh somethin's got to break up
            F#m
I've been asleep
             Asus2  B
And I need to wake up now
