Verse 1:
B
I feel so funny these days
E            Gb              B
I'd rather sleep than stay awake

Trees used to talk to me
E                  Gb              B
Now I know what's real and what is fake
E                 Gb               B
Now I know what's real what's fake
E                   Gb
Rather sleep than stay awake

Verse 2:
B
Are we from outer space
E             Gb                     B
This doesn't feel like the right place

And we'll try anything
E            Gb        B
Just to be a kid once again
E            Gb        B
Just to be a kid again

Interlude: E Gb B E Gb B

Outro:
E            Gb                    B
Now I know what's real what's fake
E            Gb         B
Rather sleep than stay awake
E            Gb         B
Just to be a kid again
E      Gb     B

Biography

Kero Kero Bonito is a British band from London, England. The band consists of vocalist Sarah Bonito and producers Gus Lobban and Jamie Bulled. Their name comes from the Japanese onomatopoeic words for frog croaks and a type of fish. Gus and Jamie grew up in the suburbs south of London and went to school together. In search for a new band member, they posted advertisements, including on MixB, an online bulletin board for Japanese expatriates, largely due to their interest in Japanese rap.
