Verse:

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

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

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


Chorus:

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


Verse:

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


Chorus:

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


Bridge:

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


Solo: F F Am Am C C G G x2


Verse:

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


Chorus:

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