You follow your feelings, you follow your dreams
You follow the leader into the trees
And what~s in there waiting, neither one of us knows
You gotta keep one eye open the further you go
You never dreamed you~d go down on one knee, but now
Who could have seen, you~d be so hard to please somehow
You feel like a poor boy, a long way from home
You~re just a poor boy, a long way from home
And its wake up time
Time to open up your eyes
And rise and shine
You spend you life dreaming, running around in a trance
You hang out forever and still miss the dance
And if you get lucky, you might find someone
To help you get over the pain that will come
Yeah, you were so cool back in high school, what happened
You were sure not to have your spirits dampened
But you~re just a poor boy alone in this world
You~re just a poor boy alone in this world
And its wake up time
Time to open up your eyes
And rise and shine
Well, if he gets lucky, a boy finds a girl
To help him to shoulder the pain in this world
And if you follow your feelings and you follow your dreams
You might find the forest there in the trees
Yeah, you~ll be alright, it~s gonna take time, but now
Who could have seen you~d be so hard to please somehow
You~re just a poor boy, a long way from home
You~re just a poor boy, a long way from home
And its wake up time
Time to open up your eyes
And rise and shine
~Cause it~s wake up time
Time to open up your eyes
And rise and shine
And it ends on that nice chord. If you prefer, you can play the chords
any which way you like but to get the sound as accurate and precise as
how it sounds on the album, I suggest you play the chords like this:
