Title: I Need To Wake Up
Artist: Melissa Etheridge
Written by: Melissa Etheridge
From the film - An Inconvenient Truth
B\E
Have I been sleeping?
Asus2 E
I've been so still, afraid of crumblin'
B\E
Have I been careless?
Asus2 E
Dismissing all the distant rumblings
Asus2
Take me where I am supposed to be
F#M
To comprehend the things that I can't see
E
CHORUS: Cos I need to move
B
I need to wake up
F#M
I need to change
Asus2
I need to shake up
E
I need to speak out
B
Somethin's got to break up
F#M
I've been asleep
Asus2 B Asus2 E
And I need to wake up now
B\E
And as a child
Asus2 E
I danced like it was 1999
B\E
My dreams were wild
Asus2
The promise of this new world
E
Would be mine
Asus2
Now I am throwing off the carelessness of youth
F#M
To listen to an inconvenient truth
E
CHORUS: That I need to move
B
I need to wake up
F#M
I need to change
Asus2
I need to shake up
E
I need to speak out
B
Somethin's got to break up
F#M
I've been asleep
Asus2 B A
And I need to wake up now
B
I am not an island
Asus2
I am not alone
B
I am my intentions
Asus2
Trapped here in this flesh and bone
E
CHORUS: And I need to move
B
I need to wake up
F#M
I need to change
Asus2
I need to shake up
E
I need to speak out
B
Somethin's got to break up
F#M
I've been asleep
Asus2 B E
And I need to wake up now
B F#M
I want a change
Asus2
I need to shake up
E
I need to speak out
B
Oh somethin's got to break up
F#M
I've been asleep
Asus2 B
And I need to wake up now
