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      B

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      B

who's colored bitter lime.





Em       C

open the window

    Am             Bm   D 

and lift into your dreams

Em      C

lately, baby

Am             D       B7

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            B

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     B

it's tracking outer rings.





Em        C           

open your window

    Am          Bm   D

to  lift into a dream

Em    C

baby, baby

Am             D        B7

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     B

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    B

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        B7

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.
