Wake Up

	  		
Intro 
F#m 
Yo, yup

 
F#m 
Thanks for stoppin' in 
             Bm 
This ain't no pop, no Mary Poppins , not a synonym 
         A                             
Ah Jr. Gong and Joss Stone the modern day Janis Joplin 
C#9 
 Come to tell you what is happenin' 
          F#m 
If you've been tuning in 
                         Bm 
I'm assuming that you're unsatisfied unless  
                                      
you don't know the root of the music 
              A 
From the beginning 
                   C#9 
In this modern day test tube factory that we're livin' in 


verse 1 

C#m 
What is this nonsense I can't hear through? 
This combination of money and fools 
Bm 
It's abominable 
Uncontrollable 
C#m 
Remember the stage where the flower child rules 
and music was true so the people could choose 
   Bm 
then the suits took control 
Promote a new low 

Pre-Chorus 

C#m                                    Bm 
My life is a soundtrack to a beautiful movement 
C#m                                 Bm 
Composed to get closer to a revolution 
What are you doing? 



F#m 
Wake up 
                        Bm 
Tell me what is this nonsense 
                  A 
Why can't we be conscious? 
                        C# 
Of what we're feeding our people 
F#m 
Wake up 
                      Bm 
Tell me what is this nonsense 
             A 
You killed the conscious 
                 C# 
With your deliberate evil 




verse 2 

C#m 
What is this shit now we're forced to sit? 
The greenery gone and our soul got split 
Bm 
It's incredulous 
How your lyrics got prejudice 
C#m 
Cast your mind back to the soul out flick 
When a couple of strings and a mic was it 
Bm 
It's a fashion-less show 
Unbelievable 

Pre-Chorus 

Chorus 


Bridge 

C#m 
(First they take your mind) 

Ambiguous and subliminal 
                               Bm 
What does singing have to do with my abdominals? 
Better read the fine print in your peripherals 
C#m 
(Then they take your soul) 
                                  Bm 
Him and me lawyer come pen pals, suddenly I hear 
funny signals 
What a sneaky set of individuals 
C#m 
(And just before you know) 

You can't see no residuals 
                   Bm      
And those who say they have your back 
you take it out a straight attack 
and sell out for decimals  
C#m 
(The whole of you is owned by 
Somebody else, your screamin' for help 
      Bm 
So shake up yourself, the call is comin' through) 
Some truth from me to you 


Chorus 


Outro 

F#m           Bm 
    What's this nonsense 
               A 
Can't we be conscious? 
                    C# 
Of what we're feeding our, what we're feeding our 
F#m                Bm 
     What's this nonsense 
                A 
Can't we be conscious? 
           C# 
Can't we be, can't we be? 
F#m          Bm 
Now wake up, wake up 
                    A 
All my people now wake up 
              C# 
Wake up for me, wake up for me people 
F#m      Bm 
Wake up, wake up 
          A 
Wake up, wake up 
                C# 
You got to be conscious
