Put a capo on 5 if you want to play along to the track, but if you're just
singin' with your guitar... I found this a much easier tone to sing to XD
 
[Intro]
C                                        Em
Don't wake up, won't wake up, can't wake up, no, don't wake me up
C                                        Em
Don't wake up, won't wake up, can't wake up, no, don't wake me up
 
[Verse]
         C           Em
It's the early morn'
                 F
Lights flick on  
                              C                   G     Am
Sleepy eyes peek through the blinds at something wrong
          Em
Motionless remains the mess
 F                                C      G
Shame, such a beautiful, beautiful, young life
 
[Chorus]
C                    F                                    Am
   By the time I'm dreaming, and you've crept out on me sleeping
                  F       G       C
I'm busy in the blissful unaware
                  F                                    Am
By the time I'm dreaming, and you've crept out on me sleeping
                F      G            C
Tell me, how am I supposed to care?
 
[Interlude]
C                                        Em
Don't wake up, won't wake up, can't wake up, no, don't wake me up
C                                        Em
Don't wake up, won't wake up, can't wake up, no, don't wake me up
 
 
Then repeat the another verse
 
 
[Chorus]
C                    F                                    Am
   By the time I'm dreaming, and you've crept out on me sleeping
                  F       G       C
I'm busy in the blissful unaware
                  F                                    Am
By the time I'm dreaming, and you've crept out on me sleeping
                F      G            C
Tell me, how am I supposed to care?
 
 
After the second chorus, the bridge starts. Only I couldn't really
figure that one out. I hope someone will.

Hi Ruby, I found for the bridge that repeating F G (once per line) works well. See what you think
