E C#m
I.O.I.O.
E C#m
You know I love getting up in the morning
E C#m
When the sun first strikes the trees
A G#m
All the morning birds that sing above
F#m B7
Still bring back memories
C#m E
Of a girl who stood beside me
C#m E
When the rights I did were wrong
A G#m
But she went back down the river
F#m B7
Just when I thought I could be strong
F#m E
When I thought I could be strong, so I sing
E C#m
I.O.I.O.
E C#m
She never told me why she left me
E C#m
But the letter said goodbye
A G#m
Now my mornings are for wond'ring
F#m B7
And my nights to reason why
C#m E
Why a stranger comes to steal the love
C#m E
Of a girl I had to hold
A G#m
But she went back down the river
F#m B7
Just when I thought I could be strong
F#m E
When I thought I could be strong, so I sing
I.O.I.O.
