Early Morning Wake Up Call

E E C#m C#m   E E C#m C#m

    E
You saw the sign on a pick-up truck and bought a guitar with a borrowed buck
         C#m
(Na, na, na) And you dig it, - - - and you dig it
      E
They liked your song, they were hot for you, you got the job, there was work to do
         C#m
(Na, na, na) And you dig it, - - - and you dig it

     A                         B                  A                      B
But waiting, there was someone waiting for you, claiming a piece of everything that you do
   E                                 C#m      E                                   C#m
It seems I’ve heard your story all bef-o-r-e, someone’s standing knocking at your d-o-o-r
     F#m
Your early morning wake up call, the bags are packed and in the hall
                                  B
The managers ran off with all the money that you made

    E
You get on stage nearly every night, you work around till you get it right
         C#m
(Na, na, na) And you dig it, - - - and you dig it
    E
And then you sign for a record deal and off you go on the music wheel
         C#m
(Na, na, na) And you dig it, - - - and you dig it

    A                          B                  A                      B
But waiting, there was someone waiting for you, claiming a piece of everything that you do
   E                                 C#m      E                                   C#m
It seems I’ve heard your story all bef-o-r-e, someone’s standing knocking at your d-o-o-r

Your early morning wake up call, the bags are packed and in the hall
                                  B
The managers ran off with all the money that you made

C#m                             A
You made the charts and all the hangers on were hanging on
E                 A               E              A          D
Flashing knives behind your back, living in your money sack
             C#m                 B    B
And you were thinking you got it made

    E
You do the tours and the interviews, you meet the press and you’re in the news
         C#m
(Na, na, na) And you dig it, - - - and you dig it
    E
You hear your song on the radio, you see your face on the TV shows
         C#m
(Na, na, na) And you dig it, - - - and you dig it

    A                          B                  A                      B
But waiting, there was someone waiting for you, claiming a piece of everything that you do
   E                                 C#m      E                                   C#m
It seems I’ve heard your story all bef-o-r-e, someone’s standing knocking at your d-o-o-r
     F#m
Your record isn’t selling well, the tickets to your shows don’t sell
    F#m
You look around and suddenly, you find that you’ve got leprosy
    F#m
The taxman’s coming after you, your lawyer and your girlfriend too
        F#m                           B
And the managers ran off with all the money that you made

E
Na, na, na-na-na, na, na, na-na-na
         C#m
(Na, na, na) And you dig it, - - - and you dig it
E
Na, na, na-na-na, na, na, na-na-na
         C#m
(Na, na, na) And you dig it, - - - and you dig it
A                          B                  A                      B
waiting, there was someone waiting for you, claiming a piece of everything that you do ... (fade out)
