Man

G
 I spent the last six years like Hoffman in a swimming pool
        G
And I've been lost at sea inside a house off Driftwood Avenue
     G
And I, I made a mess out of the life that lay ahead of me, oh
Em
  The clock is ticking faster now
                      D
And I'm too old to be growing up


[Verse 2]
G
 Goodbye the heartache, that's the only southern part of me
G
 I pack some boxes in the basement and move down the street
     G
And I, I'll leave the pirate ships to kids who don't know anything, oh
Em                                             D
  I'll be every bit the person we both already know I'll be


[Chorus]
      G                                Em
Wake up, wake up, it's time to be a man
      C         G
Wake up, wake up
      G                                Em
Wake up, wake up, it's time to be a man
      C         G
Wake up, wake up
Em                                               C
Wave goodbye as I outgrow the shadow of Peter Pan
                     G
It's time to be a man


[Refrain]
                   G
Don't close your eyes
               G
Don't say goodnight
                 Em   D
Don't take your life

Wake up, wake up


[Verse 3]
G
 I had another nightmare, baby won't you comfort me
        G
And I've been lost at sea inside a house off Beachwood Avenue
     G
And I, I made a mess out of the life that lay ahead of me, oh
Em
  The clock is ticking faster now
D
 The clock is ticking faster now


[Chorus]
      G                                Em
Wake up, wake up, it's time to be a man
      C         G
Wake up, wake up (Don't close your eyes, don't say goodnight)
      Em                               C
Wake up, wake up, it's time to be a man (Don't disappear, don't not be here)
      G
Wake up, wake up
Em                                               C
Wave goodbye as I outgrow the shadow of Peter Pan
                     G
It's time to be a man


[Refrain]
                   G
Don't close your eyes
               G
Don't say goodnight
               Em              D
Don't disappear, don't not be here
               C
Wake up, wake up (Wake up, wake up)
                Em                 D
(Wake up, wake up) Wake up, wake up
                C
(Wake up, wake up) Wake up, wake up
                Em                 D
(Wake up, wake up) Wake up, wake up


[Chorus]
      G
Wake up, wake up, it's time to be a man (Don't close your eyes)
      Em        G
Wake up, wake up (Don't say goodnight)
      G                                Em
Wake up, wake up, it's time to be a man (Don't disappear)
      C         G
Wake up, wake up
Em                                               C
Wave goodbye as I outgrow the shadow of Peter Pan
Em                                             C
  I'll be every bit the person we both already know I can

It's time to be a man


[Verse 4]
C                          Em           D
 I used to see all of the world in positivity (Don't close your eyes, don't disappear)
        C                          Em                  D
And I've been lost at sea inside a house off Driftwood Avenue (Don't say goodnight, don't not be
 here)
     C                           Em            D
And I, I made a mess out of the life that lay ahead of me, oh (Don't take your life, don't not 
be here)
C
 The clock is ticking faster now (Wake up, wake up)
Em                     D          G
  The clock is ticking faster now
