------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Waking Up - Honor by August -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EEmaj7AmajEmaj I'm waking up with a new sensation I think that I could get used to it Laying around soaking up the sounds of the radio Drowning out the television
Pre-Chorus:
C#Eb There's nothing to see here EF#E No reason to be here waiting on the telephone line ABE Nobody's calling me anyway ABC#B Anywhere you go it's like you're gone but when you're here
Chorus:
AB You might as well believe in something EBA In the strangest of places B I finally found you I finally found you
Verse 2:
EEmaj7 Too many cars not going far AmajEmaj Enough to get you to a bar Where you can drink and think about That girl that gave you the perfect scar Oh you know there's a story there Somewhere underneath her hair That she twirled on her finger Drink and let this moment linger
Pre-Chorus:
C#Eb There's nothing to see here EF#E No reason to be here waiting on the telephone line ABE Nobody's calling me anyway ABC#B Anywhere you go it's like you're gone but when you're here
Chorus:
AB You might as well believe in something EBA In the strangest of places B I finally found you I finally found you
Bridge:
C#mE Blame it all on satellites C#mB Causing too much interference F#mAB No one hangs around when they get lonely, yeah E (High) ABA But me, I think I'll stick around and watch them tear it down C#mBEBE Maybe climb a mountain so I can get a better view of the world
Chorus
In the strangest of places (x2) I finally found you (x2)
(I'm waking up with a new sensation) (x2)
