Wake another day, to a different sky 
Some take the fast lane 
But this is my life 

Swim upstream to a warm place 
Lay with the trees 
Feel the sun on my face 


---Interlude--- 
Note: The notes on the E and A strings are strummed (with your thumb), 
not plucked. The notes on the D and G strings are plucked with your index 
and/or middle finger.  This gives a nice effect with the bass notes.

Ah Ah Ah Ah Ahhhhhhhh 
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ahhhhhhhh 


---Verse--- 
Crystals shine brighter on the water 
My own fireworks show 
One only dreamers know 

Wild as the night bring me closer 
Never want to feel getting older 
I'm leaving time behind 

---Interlude--- 
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ahhhhhhhh 
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ahhhhhhhh 

---Bridge--- 
Note: The bridge follows this C-G-D  C-D-Bm progression and it's kind of 
open to interpretation.  I've tabbed out the basic pattern based on what 
I pick out of the song and the plucking pattern in the Interlude.  By the 
3rd time through the bridge, the guitar is definitely getting messier with 
added notes (e.g. open B and e strings thrown into the mix).

I wake up on an island 
No better place I know 
I wake up on an island 
Where I call home
