 D
 When I wake up, well I know I'm gonna be,
 GAD

 GAD
I'm gonna be the man who goes along with you

I'm gonna be the man who's growing old with you

Anyone know the strum pattern?
Are1222 (report comment to admin): 
If you want to play it in the right key transpose it up 2 semitones
Hal Toupee (report comment to admin): 
This lyric "And if I grow , well I know I'm gonna be..." is actually "And if I grow OLD, well I know I'm gonna be..."



Fun song and my first comment!!!



Thanks for posting it

Hal
Tex Moonbeam (report comment to admin): 
Agree with ARE1222 - the actual Proclaimers version is in E but fortunately, I sing it in THIS key, so thanks for posting - Tex
kcr123 (report comment to admin): 
I think the last two lines should be transposed, so the Bm comes first and the tune resolves to D on the final "to you"?
Mike Ayre (report comment to admin): 
Sounds better in the key of E

E ... A ... B... E
