1. And when the world began I'd been asleep forever,

      A7                                                                     D

    I opened one eye, 'twas then it was I got the whim to wake.

 

     - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -    D                                          A

2. And when the weight of space rolled like it was an ocean,

     A7                                                                     D

    one became one, father and son watched the sunrise break.

     - - - - - - - - - - - - -   Am                                G             D

    And as the ocean warmed, and from this dream we woke,

     - - - - - - - - - - - - - -     Am      G                                      D

    one sang to greet the dawn, one pursed his lips and spoke.

 

D                          G            D     - D                         G           D

    Wake up and hear the music,      wake up and hear the music play,

D                         G            D    - D                        G                    D

    wake up and hear the music,    wake up and hear what the people say.

4. I heard the heavens sing predicting Marty Robbins,

  A7                                                             D

   I knew I'd find music and time were the perfect plan.

     - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -   D                         A

    I watched my son sail on a little ship a-bobbin',

   A7                                                              D

    I had to grow, I needed to know exactly who I am.

     - - - - - - - - - - - - -   Am                                G             D

    And as the ocean warmed, and from this dream we woke,

     - - - - - - - - - - - - - -     Am      G                                      D

    one sang to greet the dawn, one pursed his lips and spoke.
