Metallica – where the wild things are
Tuning:Eb
Intro: Em Cmaj7 C7 C – Em Cmaj7 C7 C
So wake up, sleepy one
It's time to save your world  
          
    
 
Steal dreams and give to you 
Shoplift a thought or two 
All children touch the sun  
Burn fingers one by one, by one    
Will this earth be good to you? 
D5 C#5 Em Cmaj7/E
Keep you clean or stain through?
So wake up, sleepy one
It's time to save your world  
You're where the wild things are  
Toy soldiers off to war    
Big eyes to open soon 
Believing all under sun and moon
But does heaven know you're here?
And did they give you smiles or tears?
No, no tears  
Will this earth be good to you? 
D5 C#5 Em Cmaj7/E
Keep you clean or stain through?
So wake up, sleepy one
It's time to save your world   
You're where the wild things are  
Toy soldiers off to war    
You swing your rattle down  
Call to arms, the trumpets sound
Toy horses start the charge  
Robot chessmen standing guard 
All you children touch the sun 
Burn your fingers one by one 
Will this earth be good to you? 
Keep you clean or stain through?
So wake up, sleepy one
It's time to save your world  
You're where the wild things are  
soldiers off to war     
So close your little eyes
