              Verso 1 
 
Bm          
Don't try to wake me up 
     A                                    Bm   
Even if the sun really does come out tomorrow 
Bm 
Don't believe anything you say 
   A 
Anymore, in the morn, in the morning 
Bm 
Bricks to this old house are breaking 
A 
Steel would have weathered but now forlorning 
Bm                                 A 
It's alarming how loud the silence screams 
A 
No warn, no warn, no warning 
Bm                                                 A 
Addictions fill the table where the family used to sit 
A                                  Bm 
And conversate, Conversate to the sounds 
Bm 
To the sounds of a record player 
A                                                           Bm 
With it's jumping needle and the lights that grow dim over time 
 
Refrão 
 
Bm    D        A 
With downcast eyes 
A                                   Bm 
There's more to living than being alive 
Bm    D        A 
With downcast eyes 
A                                   Bm  
There's more to living than being alive 
 
Verso 2 
 
 Bm 
Are you where you thought you'd be 
 A 
So beautiful and only twenty-three 
 Bm 
Opposition rests in the hearts 
     A 
With no, with no, with no opportunity 
 Bm 
It's not that we don't talk 
  A 
It's just no one really listens and honesty fades 
 Bm 
Like a politician lost in the course 
  A                                  Bm 
All smiles and no one remembers our names 
 
Refrão x2 
 
Bm     
Don't try to wake me up 
     A                                    Bm 
Even if the sun really does come out tomorrow 
Bm 
Don't believe anything I say 
    A 
Anymore, in the morn, in the morning 
 
 
Refrão x2
