Get Up - Nik Kershaw

Intro: Am, Am, Dm, Em x 4


     Am                       Dm       Em
It's dark in there and you're quite unaware
         Am                        Dm          Em
That the cracks on the ceiling are mocking you
     Am                    Dm        Em       F
You're airless bag, you're dust in a shaft of light
        G         G7
And you think you might
E        Am         C         F
Yeah you might stay there all day

Heh heh


    Dm  C    G
Get up - get on your feet
    Dm  C         G
Get up - don't go back to sleep
    Dm  C        G
Get up - life is bitter sweet
         F         C          G
And it's all going on without you


       Am                Dm        Em
You're safe in there, no sharks anywhere
      Am                             Dm          Em
Not a soul to get you doing what you don't want
   Am              Dm     Em          F            G
Go on pretend it's Sunday again, it's Sunday again


        Am                   Dm        Em
It's so warm in there, feels like camembert
        Am                                  Dm     Em
All the things you'd do if only you had the energy
    Am               Dm          Em      F
You bargain for just ten minutes more of this
       G        G7
When a prince's kiss
E     Am    C    F
Turns you into a swan
      
Dream on


    Dm  C    G
Get up - get on your feet
    Dm  C         G
Get up - don't go back to sleep
    Dm  C        G
Get up - life is bitter sweet
         F         C          G
And it's all going on without you
          F           C           G
Yeah it's all kicking off without you
