Start Jamming...
[A] [Gm]
[A] All through this long and sleepless night I hear my neighbors talking
Saying that part of my life will in others' eyes be soon [G] be walking
Somebody wake me, wake [G] me, when it's over
Tell [D]
[A] me that I'm famous and [D] wake me when it's over
Some of them say [A] I love it, what it used [B] to be
[Em] And everyone knows but me
[D] I close my ears, not wanting [B] to hear
[Em] But the words run loud and clear
[E]
Through this raw, slow [A] feeling I hear my neighbors when
They say she don't love me, she don't love me
They say my heart's [G] in danger, [B] I'm in need of [A] a lover's favor
Somebody wake me, wake me,
[G] when it's over
[A] Tell me that I'm famous [G] and wake me when it's [D] over
When the heart desires, [Em] my whole world you despise
[D] I can't bear to be losing you, [Em] you're my whole life proof
[A] I
[G] [D]
[A]
[G] [F]
[Bb] should listen to you, I should listen to you
I've heard it before, [Ab] listening to my neighbors criticize
I [Bb] am, not to realize, [Ab] you don't [Ab] want me by your [Eb] side
I hear you scream down my [C] face,
[Fm] my memory fades
[Eb] I've never dreamed [C] before, [Fm] so let it go
[F]
[Bb]
[Ab] Tell
[Bb] me that I'm famous and [Ab] wake me when it's over
