verse 1
N.C.
C
Wide awake and feeling mortal
G
At this moment in the dream
G7
That old man there in the mirror
C
And my shaky self-esteem
N.C.
C
Here today and gone tomorrow
F
It's the way it's got to be
C G
With an empty blue horizon
C
For as far as I can see
F
God Almighty here I am
C
Am I where I ought to be
G
I've begun to soon descend
C
Like the sun into the sea
F
And I thank my lucky stars
C
From here to eternity
G
For the artist that you are
C
And the man you made of me
verse 2
N.C.
C
Pretty speeches still unspoken
G
Perfect circles in the sand
G7
Rules and promises I've broken
C
That I still don't understand
C
Soon or later I'll be leaving
F
I'm a winner either way
C G
For the laughter and the loving
C
That I'm living with today
F
God Almighty here I am
C
Am I where I ought to be
G
I've begun to soon descend
C
Like the sun into the sea
F
And I thank my lucky stars
C
From here to eternity
G
For the artist that you are
C
And the man you made of me
Coda

Wide awake and feeling mortal
