1. Stay out super late tonight picking apples, making pies
   C                     F            G
   Put a little something in our lemonade and take it with us

               Am          F      G
R: We're half awake in a fake empire
               Am          F      G
   We're half awake in a fake empire
   
2. Tiptoe through our shiny city with our diamond slippers on
   Do our gay ballet on ice, bluebirds on our shoulders

R: We're half awake...

3. Turn the light out say goodnight, no thinking for a little while
    C                  F        G
   Let's not try to figure out everything at once
    C                 F            G
   It's hard to keep track of you falling through the sky

R: We're half awake...
