Ok, so maybe this song is one of my guilty pleasures, but c'mon it's a great melodic
song! I like songs with catchy vocals, im a sucker for that. Anyways, it seems like a
pretty straight-forward song. The other tab for this song was in the right key, but it
was a lower E. The higher powerchord E sounds much better. Anyways, I've decided to add
the lyrics (from AZlyrics.com) and just show where the chords are.

There's people talking
They talk about me
They know my name
They think they know everything
But they don't know anything
About me
Give me a dance floor
Give me a dj
Play me a record
Forget what they say
Cause I need to go
Need to get away tonight
(Pre-Chorus)
{palm mute or pick the strings to make it sound cooler}
I put my makeup on a saturday night
I try to make it happen
Try to make it all right
I know I make mistakes
I'm living life day to day
It's never really easy but it's ok
(Chorus)
Wake Up Wake Up
On a saturday night
Could be New York
Maybe Hollywood and Vine
London, Paris maybe Tokyo
There's something going on anywhere I go
Tonight
Tonight
Yeah, tonight
The cities restless
It's all around me
People in motion
Sick of all the same routines
And they need to go
They need to get away
Tonight
(Pre-Chorus)
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
People all around you
Everywhere that you go
People all around you
B(?)
They don't really know you
Everybody watching like it's some kind of show
Everybody's watching
They don't really know you now
(They don't really know you)
(They don't really know you)
And forever
Wake Up Wake Up
(Wake Up Wake Up)
Wake Up Wake Up
(Wake Up Wake Up)
(chorus)
