I Lie Awake It’s all chorus! G D Am B7 E C Em B7 C F C A7(D) Dm D
I lie awake and I think of the things we can do I’m just getting used to the thought of me being with you I’ve waited so long for my hour in the limelight The crowd’s up and gone, golly gee But you are there waiting in the wings with twelve roses for me
I’m a gift horse, with a big mouth, that’s me I’m down on my luck and I’m passing the buck And I’m struggling just to be free Where do you fit in my grand master plan I’m flattered, I’m forgotten, and I’m rotten, rotten, rotten I’d probably throw back the last edible fish in the sea
So let’s carry on as if nothing was wrong you’re so awfully nice to have around I’ll make you dinner I‘m a miserable sinner and I can’t get my act off the ground Life’s got me out of bed, made me shake my foggy head But I’d rather be asleep until five When you arrive at my dive you make me glad to be alive
Instrumental over first half of chorus
I lie awake, and I think of the things we can do I’m just getting used to the thought of me being with you ...
