I'm Only Sleeping (Beatles)

(starts on E)
|Em%|Am%|
When I wake up early in the morning,
GC|GB7|Em
Lift my head, I'm still yawning When I'm
%|Am%|GC
in the middle of a dream, Stay in bed,
|GAm7|%%
float upstream (- float upstream)
[chorus]:
    |G%|Am
     Please don't wake me, no don't
    %|Bm%|Am
    shake me. Leave me where I am,
    %|Em%|Em%
    I'm only sleeping
    |%%
|Em%|Am%|G
Everybody seems to think I'm lazy. I
C|GB7|Em
don't mind, think they're crazy Running
%|Am%|G
everywhere at such a speed, Till they
     
C|GAm7
find there's no need.
|G%|Am%|
Please don't spoil my day, I'm miles a-
Bm%|Am%|Em%
way, and after all, I'm only sleeping.
|Em%|%%|%%|%%
|Am%|E%|
Keeping an eye on the world going by my
Am%|G%|Em
window. Taking my time. Lying there
%|Am%|GC
staring at the ceiling, Waiting for a
|GAm7
sleepy feeling.
[chorus]
|Am%|E%|
Keeping an eye on the world going by my
Am%|G%
window. Taking my time.
