Verse 1:
(maj7)/
Open up your eyes and wake up
Got a lot of time to make up, girl
(maj7)
Time goes by in such a hurry
Why d you sit around and worry so, don t you know
You ve been living your life in a shell
Now s the time has come to break the spell
Chorus:
Everybody s got to shine sometime
It s just a matter of time you know
There s a whole new world for you to discover
Wake up, wake up
Verse 2:
Life is just a book of pages
And you still got so many to fill in
Don t put down what s happenin around you
Just because they told you it s a sin
How do you know until you try
Love is callin so spread your wings and fly
[repeat chorus]
Bridge:

Got so many things to show you
-5
Groovy things that we can share together
-5 +
Baby, no no no don t be afraid of tomorrow

Coda [repeat to fade]:
Everybody s got to shine sometime
It s just a matter of time you know
There s a whole new world for you to discover
Wake up, wake up baby
