[Verse 1]
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 up stream (float upstream)
[Chorus]
G Am Bm Am
Please don't wake me, no don't shake me, leave me where I am
Cmaj7
I'm only sleeping
(Guitar stops, bass solo)
[Verse 2]
Em Am G C G B7
Everybody seem 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, till they find, there's no need (there's no need)
[Chorus]
G Am Bm Am
Please don't spoil my day, I'm miles away, and after all
Cmaj7
I'm only sleeping
Cmaj7 Em
(Guitar stops, bass solo)
[Bridge]
Dm E7 Am Am/G F
Keeping an eye on the world going by my window, taking my time
[Verse 3]
E7 Am G C G B7
Lying there staring at the ceiling, waiting for a sleeping feeling
| Em | Am | G C | G C | C |
