Wake Up Sleeper

By: Austin French

Transpose:
[VERSE 1]
                 Gm      F
Thank God for the daylight
          Eb               Bb

I spent a long time in the dark
                 Gm      F

Felt good saying goodbye
               Eb        Bb

Waking up to a brand new heart
              Gm            F 
And if you're sleeping like I used to be
     Eb                   Bb

In a grave that holds you tight
                 Gm       F

There's a Savior calling
            Eb        Bb

Promising a brand new life
He's saying

[CHORUS]
Gm      F          Eb        Bb

Wake up   sleeper, open your eyes
   
Gm        F               Eb          Bb
Oh sinner, arise, leave your past at the door

Gm      F          Eb          Bb
Wake up   sleeper, come to the light

Gm         F                 Eb           Bb
Christ is alive, death don't live here anymore

[TAG]
            Eb           Bb
Death don't live here anymore

[VERSE 2]
                    Gm       F
I bet you like that freedom
          
Eb            Bb
I bet you like your new name
                   
Gm       F
Oh, welcome to the kingdom
         
Eb            Bb
Yeah, we all feel that way
          Gm           F
So if you see somebody sleeping like
    Eb              Bb

The way you used to be
                   Gm     F

Tell 'em 'bout the Savior
             Eb           Bb

And a little thing called free

Go ahead and say

[CHORUS]

[BRIDGE 1]
Eb                             F
  Rise up and come out of that grave
Gm                        Bb
  
Rise up in that amazing grace
Eb                           F
  
Oh sleeper, won't you come awake
Gm    Dm

Come awake
Eb                             F
  Rise up and come out of that grave
Gm                        Bb
  
Rise up in that amazing grace
Eb                           
  
Oh sleeper, won't you come awake

Oh sleeper, won't you come awake
Eb    Bb

Come awake
