Intro
A7
A
I wake up in the early when I see my day walk in
I wake up in the early when I start to begin
I drink up my coffee to drive dreams away
E7 A
And I think about leaving but remain for the day
A E7
Oh, glory but I just stay blind
A E7
Think about my loving, yes, some of the time
D7/F# A7
I want to take it easy
D7/F# A7
Ain't it hard like they say
B7 E7
But I can play
A/G B7/F# A/G B7/F#
And most any morning, most any morning
D B* E A7
I like to be born into my guitar day
A/G B7/F#
They say it's all butterflies
A/G B7/F#
Don't let your dreams get in your eyes
D B*
But Orpheus made the sunrise
E A7
'Cause he knew how to play
D7/F# A7
Well, she sings so fadey, I called my guitar lady
E7 A7
She's a noted writer, I just can't seem to let her be
D7/F# A7
And she is my flower, I call her my easy hour
E7 A7
She's a low special, and baby that's enough for me
D7/F# A7
And it's all right, you're in the graveyard now
D7/F# A7
Well it's all right, you're in the graveyard now
D7/F# A7
You may weep, you may moan
D7/F# A7
You may pass your life so gay
A7
But lucky in life, I swear sometimes
B7 E7
Surely going to have to meet your leaving day
D7/F#
Well, she sings like the seashore
A7
Tonight I don't ride on your seesaw
E7 A7
I will call up the angels if they have a little word to say
D7/F#
And I think I'll try cloud walking
A7
It's just my face you see here talking
E7
And it's just the guitar singing
A7
And I have to let her have her way
E7 D7/F# A7
