Intro:
Bb
 
Verse:
Bb Gm
I awoke that day in the afternoon
Eb
And my bed was in a basket
F
Underneath the blue balloon
Bb Gm
Then a swarm of moths surrounded me
Eb
And my hair was standing on its end
F
With electricity
 
Verse:
Bb Gm
And as I looked down on my whole life
Eb
I was speeding through the forest
F
On a motorbike
Bb
I waved to you
Gm
But you couldn't see
Eb
I could hear a crowd of people
F
Calling after me
 
[Refrão]
Eb D
Wake up little dreamer
Bb G
It's time to rise
Ebm F
Open up your eyes
Ebm F
Open up your eyes
Ebm F
Open up your eyes
 
Verse:
Bb Gm
I've been holding out for a lifeline
Eb
Till I followed you
F
To the depths of my own mind
Bb Gm
I've been wondering kinda scattershot
Eb
Bumping into other people's lives
F
Without a second thought
 
Verse:
Bb Gm
Now I do believe in the mystical
Eb
That we have some vague connection
F
To the other world
Bb
And now what I've said
Gm
May not all be true
Eb
But this silver song I sing tonight
F
I swear it's just for you
 
[Refrão]
Eb D
Wake up little dreamer
Bb G
It's time to rise
Ebm F
Open up your eyes
Ebm F
Open up your eyes
Ebm F Bb
Open up your eyes
