Waking Up Tired

[Riff 1]
A -------------0---0--
E -0-0-0-0-0-2---2----

A       B
Oh, the nights are long
        D  E        riff 1
And I'm so tired of waking up tired
A                   B
Man, they just drag on and on
        D  E        G         A
And I'm so tired of waking up tired
Bm7             E
The company I'm keeping
D                   G
Won't let me get my sleep in

Oh, I hate the light
And I'm so tired of waking up tired
The morning sun is getting way too bright
And I'm so tired of waking up tired
Bm7      E
If I was worth a fortune
D         G
I'd never leave my bedroom

A      B     F#m        D     C    G   A
I just wanna stay right here, safe and sound

Oh, I have to go
But I'm so tired of waking up tired
The lights are on but there is no-one home
'Cos I'm so wired from waking up tired
I need a month of Sundays
To help me cope with Mondays


A      B     F#m        D     C    G   A
I just wanna stay right here, safe and sound
A        B         F#m   D     C    G   A
Blankets pulled up to my ears, safe and sound

A  B  D  E  
A  F#  E  D

Bm7      E
I need a good vacation 
D             G
From too much recreation
	
Oh, I'm late again
And I'm so tired, might even get fired
I could blame it on a cancelled train
But I won't try it, I know they won't buy it

Bm7      E
If I was worth a fortune
D         G                E
I'd never leave my bedroom until next June
A      B     F#m        D     C    G   A
I just wanna stay right here, safe and sound
A        B         F#m   D     C    G   A
Blankets pulled up to my ears, safe and sound
A      B     F#m        D     C    G   F     A
I just wanna stay right here, safe and sound
