[Intro]
Bm G D A
Bm G D A F#
[Verse 1]
Bm G D A
Feeling my way through the darkness
Bm G D A
Guided by a beating heart
Bm G D A
I can't tell where the journey will end
Bm G D A
But I know where it starts
Bm G D A
They tell me I'm too young to understand,
Bm G D A
They say I'm caught up in a dream
Bm G D A
Well life will pass me by if I don't open up my eyes
Bm G D A
Well that's fine by me
[Chorus]
Bm G D A
So wake me up when it's all over
Bm G D A
When I'm wiser and I'm older
Bm G D A
All this time I was finding myself, And I
Bm G D A
didn't know I was lost
Bm G D A
So wake me up when it's all over
Bm G D A
When I'm wiser and I'm older
Bm G D A
All this time I was finding myself, And I
Bm G D A
didn't know I was lost
[Verse 2]
Bm G D A
I tried carrying the weight of the world
Bm G D A
But I only have two hands
Bm G D A
Hope I get the chance to travel the world
Bm G D A
But I don't have any plans
Bm G D A
I wish that I could stay forever this young
Bm G D A
Not afraid to close my eyes
Bm G D A
Life's a game made for everyone
Bm G D A
And love is the prize
[Chorus]
Bm G D A
So wake me up when it's all over
Bm G D A
When I'm wiser and I'm older
Bm G D A
All this time I was finding myself, And I
Bm G D A
didn't know I was lost
Bm G D A
So wake me up when it's all over
Bm G D A
When I'm wiser and I'm older
Bm G D A
All this time I was finding myself, And I
Bm G D A
didn't know I was lost
Bm G D A
didn't know I was lost
Bm G D A
didn't know I was lost
Bm G D A
didn't know I was lost
Bm G D A
didn't know I was lost

It's Bm G D A through out the hole song and not Bm G D D. You can play it with a capo on second fret as well. You play Am F C G.
+69

The riff is somethin like this:
e|------------------|--10--------------|-10-10---10--12---|--12--10--12 12b--|
B|-12--12--10--12---|-----12---10h12---|------------------|------------------|
G|------------------|------------------|------------------|------------------|
D|------------------|------------------|------------------|------------------|
A|------------------|------------------|------------------|------------------|
E|------------------|------------------|------------------|------------------|
+7

The Riff goes like this (Played pretty fast. Listen to the song)
e|----------------10-------------------10--10--10-12-10-12--12s14--10--|
B|--12--12--10-12----12---12-10-12-10-----------------------------------|
G|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
If you're playing with the Capo on the second fret, it might be easier to play it like this. Sames notes (I think), just down an octave
e|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|--------------------------1--1--1-3-1-3--3s5--1-----------------------|
G|--2--2--0-2-5-2--2-0-2-0----------------------------------------------|
D|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
Going by hearing, so it might be BE 100%, but it sounds 100%
