Wake Up, Wake Up Lyrics
"Wake Up, Wake Up"
(P.F. Sloan - Steve Barri)
My all-time favorite Grass Roots single even if it didn't do squat on the
charts...
Intro (2x):
(maj7)
v v v v v v v v
Verse 1:
(maj7)/
Open up your eyes and wake up
Got a lot of time to make up, girl
(maj7)
Time goes by in such a hurry
Why'd you sit around and worry so, don't you know
You've been living your life in a shell
Now's the time has come to break the spell
Chorus:
Everybody's got to shine sometime
It's just a matter of time you know
There's a whole new world for you to discover
Wake up, wake up
Verse 2:
Life is just a book of pages
And you still got so many to fill in
Don't put down what's happenin' around you
Just because they told you it's a sin
How do you know until you try
Love is callin' so spread your wings and fly
(repeat chorus)
Bridge:
Got so many things to show you
Groovy things that we can share together
Baby, no no no don't be afraid of tomorrow
Link:
La la la la
La la la la
/ / / / (6x; drum roll into coda)
Coda (repeat to fade):
Everybody's got to shine sometime
It's just a matter of time you know
There's a whole new world for you to discover
Wake up, wake up baby
-- another ace 60's tab from Andrew Rogers
