	        G       Bm     E 
you wake up in the morning  
    G        Bm      E 
and fall out of your bed 
G        Bm       E 
mean cat eat parakeets 
    D          C      H 
and this one's nearly dead. 
    G      Bm       E 
you dearly wish the wind shift 
    G      Bm      E 
and greasy windows slide 
G    Bm      E 
open for the parakeet 
      D       C      H 
who's colored bitter lime. 
 
Em       C 
open the window 
    Am             Bm   D  
and lift into your dreams 
Em      C 
lately, baby 
Am             D       H7 
you can barely breathe. 
 
  G      Bm       E 
a broken wrist an accident 
    G         Bm          E 
you know that something's wrong 
    G        Bm       E 
you fold the leavings of your past 
 D     C            H 
no one knows you've gone. 
    G       Bm            E 
the sunspot flares of the early 
         G     Bm      E 
nineties light up your wings. 
    G        Bm        E 
and scan the shortwave radio 
     D        C     H 
it's tracking outer rings. 
 
Em        C            
open your window 
    Am          Bm   D 
to  lift into a dream 
Em    C 
baby, baby 
Am             D        H7 
you can starts to breathe 
 
 
    G    Bm       E 
the tectonic dispatcher shifts 
   G          Bm    E 
to smooth the ocean floor 
    G        Bm     E 
and flattens out to warmer winds 
   D          C     H 
of Brisbane's sunny shore. 
      G       Bm      E 
where buddhas tend to mending wrists 
  G      Bm         E 
a tea made from the leaves 
   G     Bm   E 
of eucalyptus fragrances 
    D    C    H 
and coriander seeds. 
 
Em       C 
open the window 
   Am          Bm   D  
to lift into a dream 
Em    C 
baby, baby 
Am                Bm    D 
you can starts to breathe. 
Em        C            
open your window 
    Am          Bm   D 
to  lift into a dream 
Em    C 
baby, baby 
Am             D        H7 
you can starts to breathe 
 
    G       Bm     E 
you wake up in the morning 
   G     Bm     E 
to warm Pacific breeze 
      G         Bm      E 
where mean cars chew on licorice 
    D      C         G#m 
and cannot climb the trees.
