(DROP Eb Tuning) 

 Em                           Am      G       C    G         B7 
When I wake up early in the morning, lift my head I'm still yawning. 
 Em                          Am     G       C    G       C 
When I'm in the middle of a dream, stay in bed float upstream. 
  G                  Am                 Bm              Am 
Please don't wake me no don't shake me leave me where I am 
           Em 
I'm only sleeping 


 Em                           Am   G        C      G             B7 
Everybody seems to think I'm lazy, I don't mind I think they're crazy 
 Em                           Am     G        C    G          C 
Running everywhere at such a speed 'til they find there's no need 
  G                   Am             Bm             Am 
Please don't spoil my day I'm miles away and after all 
               Em 
I'm only sleeping 


Dm                 E        E7        Am  Am7/G 
Keeping an eye on the world going by my window, 
 F 
Taking my time 


 Em                             Am        G      C      G       B7 
Lying there and staring at the ceiling, waiting for a sleepy feeling  
(backwards guitar solo) 
Em   Am   G    C    G    C 


  G                   Am             Bm             Am 
Please don't spoil my day I'm miles away and after all 
            Em (riff 2)    Em 
I'm only sleeping                    (yawn) 


Dm                 E        E7        Am  Am7/G
