Intro: F Am C G


Verse:

Am      C          Em          G
I saw a man on the side of the road
                 Am    C
with a sign that read 
Em                    G
'will work for food'.
Am                  C
Tried to look busy, 
         G                    G/f#
'til the light turned green...

Am      C           Em
I saw a bear on TV 
        G                    Am
and his friends were all drowning
      Am                  C         G
cause their homes were turning to water...

Am                  C              G
A strange, kinda sad, big old bear
C                    Am 
surely would happily eat me
     G          C           G     G/F#
he'd tear me to pieces that bear...


Chorus:

D               G
Wake up, sleepy head.
            Em            A
I think the suns a little brighter today
D                   G             Em              A
Smile and watch the icicles melt away and see the water rising...
D               G                   Em                A
Summers here to stay, and all those summer games will last forever
D              G                    Em                 A
Go down to the shore, kick off your shoes, dive in the empty ocean.


Verse:

Am          C            Em     G          Am          C              G
Tell me everything will be OK if I just stay on my knees and keep praying
G/f#                    C
believing in something...
Am           C           Em          G        Am          C        G
Tell me everything is all taken care of by those qualified to take care of 
G/f#
it all.


Chorus:

D               G
Wake up, sleepy head
            Em            A
I think the suns a little brighter today
D                   G             Em              A
Smile and watch the icicles melt away and see the waters rising...
D               G                    Em                 A     
Summers here to stay, and that sweet summer breeze will blow forever
D              G                    Em                 A
Go down to the shore, kick off your shoes, dive in the empty ocean.


Bridge:

F                           Am           C             G
One day, do you think we'll wake up in a world on it's way to getting 
               F               Am      C     G
better? and if so can you tell me... how?


Solo: F Am C G x2


Verse:

Am          C             Em         G             Am
I have been thinking that lately the blood is increasing
    C               C       G       G/f#
the tourniquets not keeping hold in spite of our twisting
Am                 C          Em
though we would like to believe we are
       G                Am
we are not in control
C                  C            G   G/f#
though we would love to believe


Chorus:

D               G
Wake up, sleepy head
            Em            A
I think the suns a little brighter today
D                   G             Em              A
Smile and watch the icicles melt away and see the water rising...
D               G                     Em                A
Summers here to stay, and those sweet summer girls will dance forever
D              G                    Em                 A
Go down to the shore, kick off your shoes, dive in the empty ocean.
