||:E | Bsus4 :|| 4x
[Verse 1]
EShe woke me up with a bang, bang Looking' over cross eyed had a big
Bsus4Hunch that the world was a big lie
EWhen I got up all the blood to my head
Bsus4I got so dizzy fell back into my bed
EI went over to the way side Looking for the high tide
Bsus4What will I find will I find will I find
EAll I saw was a man that had a hat
Bsus4That had a pom-pom he's been there for
Years can someone tell me how long
[Chorus]
E Bsus4Wake up to tell me
E Bsus4Wake up to show me what I could not find
E Bsus4Wake up to tell me
E Bsus4Wake up to show me what I could not find
[Verse 2]
EYou see this woman woke me up at a quarter to three
Bsus4And I didn't know it then But she put a spell on me
ESaid I had to Go down to where the cliffs meet the sea
Bsus4And meet an old man to present my plea
ESo I headed way down to the big pier (big pier)
Bsus4To await and confront my big fear (big fear)
EI wheeled around behind to my blindside
Bsus4To find an old man with a lime and a kind eye
ESaid mister, mister with your beard so long
Bsus4Won't you be a saint and tell me Just where I'm going
EHe pointed to a conk shell and then to the lime
Bsus4And said this is all I really need to get by
[Chorus]
E Bsus4Wake up to tell me
E Bsus4Wake up to show me what I could not find
E Bsus4Wake up to tell me
E Bsus4Wake up to show me what I could not find
[Bridge]

||:E Bsus4 :||8xHey hey
[Verse 3]
EI said scuse me, have you got the time
Bsus4He shrugged his shoulders said get a spine
ECoconut hit me on the head jonesin' for a fig
Bsus4 ||: E Bsus4 :||2xI got booked last night, I need another fix, dig
EYeah, just then I see a twinkle twinkle
Bsus4In the old man's eye and a wave Tossed bottle is thrown to the sky
EI caught it on the rebound
It landed with a soft sound
Bsus4I took out the message and put the bottle down
EInside was the antidote to the spell
Bsus4And I read it to the man 'cause he couldn't read so well
ESaid don't worry bout a thing you know you path is true
Bsus4Just ease your mind have a banana or two
EWell goodness, goodness, woe is me
Bsus4The man nearly flipped to learn that he was free
EBut just before we Left and started kicking it (kicking it)
Bsus4I picked up the bottle and star sixed it
EKick kick shuffle shuffle back to the beach
Bsus4With a tune on my lips and my quest in reach
EIf that woman comes to you with her song so sweet
Bsus4Say damn, let the poor sucker sleep
ELet him sleep
[Chorus]
(drums only)
Wake up to tell me
Wake up to show me what I could not find
E Bsus4Wake up to tell me
E Bsus4 EWake up to show me what I could not find
