Wake up, don't just lay there like [D] cold granite [A] stone.
[E] Wake up, we're too close to be [A] alone.
Wake up, and please darling, hold [D] me if [A] you will.
[D] Don't [A] just lay there like [E] you've gone away [A] for good.
There's too many empty pages with so many [D] things in [A] store.
[E] I can't believe it's over and you've closed the final door.
[Gbm] [E] And [A] I'm not prepared to handle these [D] things we're going [A] through.
I [E] wish God would grant me just one more night [A] with you.
Wake up, don't just lay there like [D] cold [A] granite stone.
[E] Wake up, we're too close to [A] be alone.
Wake up, and please darling, hold [D] me if [A] you will.
[D] [A] Don't just lay there [E] like you've gone away [A] for good.
Without you I feel worthless like a [D] bell that [A] doesn't ring.
[E] And I know you hear me talking yet you haven't heard a thing.
[Bm] [Ab] And [A] I can't stand it all this longer, I'll go [D] crazy [A] without you.
I [E] wish God would grant me just one more night [A] with you.
[Bb] [A] Wake up, don't just lay there like [D] cold granite [A] stone.
[E] Wake up, we're too close to be [A]
alone.
Wake up, and please darling, hold [D] me if you [A] will.
[D] Don't [A] just lay there like [E] you've gone away [A] for good.
Don't just lay there like [E] you've gone away [A] for good.
