Simple version, you can play the high "F#" of the Dadd4 chord as a hammer on and it sounds really good. Only version out there so far, if someone wants to correct me and make it better I'd greatly appreciate it.Was this info helpful?

[Verse 1]
                   Em     Dadd4        C                G
Thank God for the daylight, I spent a long time in the dark
                  Em      Dadd4            C         G
Felt good saying "Goodbye", waking up to a brand new heart
               Em            Dadd4             C                    G
And if you're sleeping like I used to be, in a grave that holds you tight
                 Em       Dadd4           C         G
There's a Savior calling, mm, promising a brand new life
 
He's saying…
 
 
[Chorus]
 Em       Dadd4 D
Wake up sleeper
C          G
Open your eyes
    Em       Dadd4
Oh sinner, arise
            C           G
Leave your past at the door
 Em       Dadd4 D
Wake up sleeper
 C           G
Come to the light
  Em        Dadd4
Christ is alive
             C         G
Death don't live here anymore
             C         G
Death don't live here anymore
 
 
[Verse 2]
                    Em     Dadd4            C             G
I bet you like that freedom, ooh, I bet you like your new name
               Em         Dadd4      C             G
Oh, welcome to the kingdom, yeah, we all feel that way (Mm-mm, mmm)
          Em            Dadd4             C               G
So if you see somebody sleeping like, the way you used to be
                   Em      Dadd4             C             G
Tell 'em 'bout the Savior, ayy, and a little thing called "Free"
 
Go ahead and say…
 
 
[Chorus]
 Em       Dadd4 D
Wake up sleeper
C          G
Open your eyes
    Em       Dadd4
Oh sinner, arise
            C           G
Leave your past at the door
 Em       Dadd4 D
Wake up sleeper
 C           G
Come to the light
  Em        Dadd4
Christ is alive
             C         G
Death don't live here anymore
 
 
[Bridge]
 C                             D
Rise up and come out of that grave
 Em                       G
Rise up in that amazing grace
C                            D
Oh sleeper, won't you come awake?
 Em   G
Come awake (Oh-oh-oh, oh)
 C                             D

Oh sleeper, won't you come awake?

Come awake

Rise up in that amazing grace
