[Verse 1]
Fmaj7 G6
If I ever get around to living
Fmaj7 G6
I'm going to put my things away
Fmaj7 G6
In the drawers and in the closets
G5 * Dm7
And there I'll stay
G5 * Dm7
Stay
Fmaj7 G6
If I ever get around to living
Fmaj7 G6
It's going to be just like I dreamed
Fmaj7 G6
I'm going to take the love I'm given
G5 * Dm7
And set it free
G5 * Dm7
Free
[Verse 2]
Fmaj7 G6
If I ever get around to living
Fmaj7 G6
I'll take the end of every day
Fmaj7 G6
Tie it up to every morning
G5 * Dm7
And sail away
G5 * Dm7
Away
G5 * Dm7
Free
G5 * Dm7
Free
[Verse 3]
G5 Dm7 G5
Maybe it's all a dream I'm having at seventeen
Dm7
I don't have tattoos
G5 Dm7
And very soon, mother will be calling me
G5 Dm7
Saying, "Come upstairs, you've got some work to do"
[Chorus]
C Fmaj7
When are you going to wise up boy?
C Fmaj7
When are you going to wise up boy?
C Fmaj7
When are you going to wise up boy?
C Fmaj7
When are you going to wise up boy?
[Verse 4]
C Fmaj7
You are hiding in your mind
C
Working all the time
Fmaj7
Trying to make it better than you got it
C Fmaj7
And you been spending all your time
C
Searching for a sign
Fmaj7
That's never going to look the way you want it
[Outro]
C Fmaj7
I think you better wise up, boy
C Fmaj7
I think you better wise up, boy
C Fmaj7
I think you better wise up, boy
C Fmaj7
I think you better wise up, boy
If I ever get around to living,
I'm gonna put my things away
In the drawers and in the closets
There I'll stay
Stay
If I ever get around to living,
It's gonna be just like I dreamed
I'm gonna take the love I'm given
And set it free
Free
If I ever get around to living,
I'll take the end of every day
Tie it up to every morning
And sail away
Away
Free, free
Maybe it's all a dream I'm having at seventeen
I don't have tattoos
And very soon, mother will be calling me
Saying, "Come upstairs, you've got some work to do"
When you gonna wise up, boy?
When you gonna wise up, boy?
When you gonna wise up, boy?
When you gonna wise up, boy?
You are hiding in your mind
Working all the time
Trying to make it better than you got it
And you've been spending all your time searching for a sign
That's never gonna look the way you want it
I think you better wise up, boy
I think you better wise up, boy
I think you better wise up, boy
I think you better wise up, boy
I think you better wise up, boy
