Morning
View chords used in this chart
G
Here in this room this narrow room where life began
C G
When we were young last night
D7
I feel your back pressed close to me
C D7 G
And hear your steady breathing as you sleep
Then as the first soft glow of dawn
C G
Moves silver grey like paint along the wall
D7
I touch your hand and feel your ring
C D7 G
And know this night is all we'll ever have
D7
Suddenly I look into your sleepy eyes
C G
You breathe my name and it just seems to dangle there
D7
Then I feel your fingers running through my mind
C G
Jumbling up my thoughts to leave them tangled there
I know so well that this is all there is
C G
And when we leave this room it's gone
D7
My mind is clear as we walk down
C D7 G
The crooked little steps to the front door
A ray of sun that ricochets
C G
From off the rooftop lights our stumbling way
D7
I touch your hand and feel your ring
C D7 G
And know this night is all we'll ever have
D7
Suddenly I look into your sleepy eyes
C G
You breathe my name and it just seems to dangle there
D7
Then I feel your fingers running through my mind
C G
Jumbling up my thoughts to leave them tangled there
D7
Suddenly I look into your sleepy eyes
C G
You breathe my name and it just seems to dangle there
D7
Then I feel your fingers running through my mind
C G
Jumbling up my thoughts to leave them tangled there
