Wake Up

     C        Dm
Wake up, wake up,
        Am         G
Little 'Liza, wake up
     C            G           Am 
I've not seen you sleeping so 
     G
sound
     C        Dm
Pull up your dress,
        Am          G
This is no place to rest
     C            G           Am 
It's far too cold here on the 
     G
ground

[Chorus]
     C        Dm
Wake up, wake up
     Am        G
Everybody wake up
          C            G         
Drag your bones to the fireplace 
Am    Dm
heap
    C         G          Am       
For I must go walking as somebody 
Dm
else
       C               G         
On the dreams of those fallen to 
Dm
sleep

[Verse]
     C        Dm
Wake up, wake up
      Am          G
Mrs. Joanie, wake up
     C            G            Am
I've not seen you so spent and poor
      C       Dm
Let's get you snug
     Am         G
Come up off the rug
        C         G           Am
There's no virtue here on the floor

Mr. Jacobs, wake up
     C            G          Am
I've not seen you so bent on prayer
    C       Dm
Put on your shoes
           Am       G
You're too heavy to move
       C          G           Am
You're in the way here on the stairs

[Chorus]
     C        Dm
Wake up, wake up

Clumsy Nana, wake up
     C             G         Am
I've not seen your room so a mess
        C          Dm
You've toppled the drawer
        Am           G
There's glass by the door
    C           G             Am
And lantern oil spilt on your chest

     C        Dm
Wake up, wake up
        Am              G
Brother Frederick, wake up
   C            G           Am
O where are you dressing to go?
     C        Dm
Take off your coat
          Am          G
There's a tie on your throat
    C             G           Am
You won't make it far in this snow

[Chorus]
     C        Dm
Wake up, wake up
    Am         G
Everybody wake up
          C            G         
Drag your bones to the fireplace 
Am    Dm
heap
    C         G          Am       
For I must go walking as somebody

On the dreams of those fallen to

[Verse]
      C         Dm
She's up, she's up
        Am          G
Little 'Liza, she's up
      C           G         Am
She's up from the ember and ash
      C          Dm
Let's quiet your head
      Am             G
Your prayers are all read
     C            G          Am N.C.
I've not heard so muffled a mass
