(don't quote me on the lyrics. but i think they're right.)
Intro: G
G Em7 D
There's so much time for holding hands,
G Em7 D
When you're sleeping with your man, in the ground,
C Em7
So while we're awake lets keep joking,
C Em7
While we're awake we're sleep walking,
C G D
When we're awake the more i learn about you,
G Em7 D
There's so much time for lying around,
G Em7 D
When you're sleeping with your man, in the ground,
C Em7
So while we're awake lets keep singing,
C Em7
While we're awake keep the telephone ringing,
C G D
When we're awake the more i learn about you,
