SLEEPY OLD MAN

Obed Buggs

(Amaj7)Listen to the whispering (G6)of the trees.
(Amaj7)Birds in the sky (G6)make me fly higher
(Amaj7)Raindrops on rooftops are (G6)begging me please,
(Amaj7)Wake up you (G)sleepy (D)old (Dmaj7)man.
(Em)It is only (D)yesterday that makes
(Amaj7)Today seem so (G)long(D).
(Em)I'm wishin' (D)tomorrow would be (Amaj7)gone,
But it (G)still lingers (Bm)on in my (E)mind.

(Amaj7)Rise and (Bm7)shine.
(C#m7)Don't let your (Bm7)mind get lonely.
(Amaj7) Don't be (Bm7)blind.
(C#m7)Don't let the (Bm7)time go slowly
(Amaj7)And you'll (Bm7)find (D)Jesus waiting for (E)you.
(Amaj7)Are you (Bm7)awake?
(C#m7)I've got some(Bm7)thing to say,
(Amaj7)For your (Bm7)sake,
(C#m7)Please stop your (Bm7)mind and pray cause
(Amaj7)It's no mis(Bm7)take,
(D)That we're here to(E)gether.

(Amaj7)-(G)-(D)Rise and shine.
(Amaj7)-(G)-(D) Kiss the Son.
(Amaj7)-(G)-(D) Lest He be angry,
And ye (F6)perish (G)from the (A)way.
(A)Jesus (G)loves you.
(A)Fall down on your (G)knees,
(A)Seek the (G)Lord, my brethren.
(F6)And He'll (G)set you (A)free.

(A9)Make it (G9)if I want to,
(A9)Please tell (G9)me what to do.
(A9)There might (G9)be hope for me (A9)yet.
(G9)-(A9)Open (G9)up your eyes,
(A9)Reach up (G9)to the sky,
(A9)You have (G9)to take the first (A9)step.

(C)Yes, I (D)know, I've got to
(C)If my (D)mind will stop to
(C)Let me (D)change my stagnant (G)ways(G).

(A9)There's a (G9)light out yonder.
(A9)I can (G9)reach its wonder.
(A9)It's in (G9)the grasp of my (A9)hands.(G9)

Help me (G9)open up my eyes,
(A9)Reach up to that (G9)wide, wide sky,
(A9)I will (G9)find my promised (A9)land(G9);

(C)Yes, I (D)know I've got to
(C)If my (D)mind will stop to
(C)Let my (D)heart show me the (C)way. (G)-(A9)

(G9)Shut your mind off to (A9)day.
(G9)Let your heart show you the (A9)way.
