Am  Em7

|C     |C     |

C                G               Am               E
Early light that burns my eyes, A minute more the sun will rise
    F                     C               G (Fig. 1)
And paint the bright blue sky with yellow gold
C             G              Am              E
I'll be dead asleep by then, Shut up in this box again
  Bm7b5   E      Bm7b5   E
Until it's gone, Outside I can hear it


A                  Bm/A             C#m/A          D/A
Birds are singing, bees are buzzing, sun shines overhead
A               Bm/A        C#m/A             D/A   A  Em7
I'd be there to see it but I can't get out of bed
C                 Dm7               C                 F/D
Since the day you left the weather always feels this way
         Amaj7       Cmaj7/A   D       Bm7b5
One more blue            sunny day



Am  Em7

C              G            Am              E
Looking for an easy mark, I hit the Denny's after dark
    F             C                G (Fig 1)
And take a lonely waitress home to drink
C                  G                  Am               E
She's sincere, but halfway through, I find I'm wishing she was you
   Bm7b5      E       Bm7b5      E
My blood goes cold, I guess this date is over


A             Bm/A          C#m/A    D/A
Several hours later I'm the only one awake
A                     Bm/A             C#m/A     D/A       A  Em7
All these streets are empty, it's just me and my mistake
C              Dm7             C                  F/D
One by one the stars go out as black sky turns to gray
         Amaj7       Cmaj7/A   D       Bm7b5
One more blue            sunny day      Sometimes I see how long


 Amaj7
I can wait
Am7                       D9
  Tempting disaster by my garden gate
Bm7b5                       Amaj7
My trembling hand's on the cellar door
Am7            D7       B7            E
 Trying not to think of what it is I'm waiting


F       C         Dm7     E   A  Bm/A  C#m/A
for

Am  Em7

C                 G             Am             E
All at once I've had enough, As if I'm made of sterner stuff
  F                 C           G (Fig 1)
I take a breath and open up the door
C                    G                Am              E
Dawn breaks hard and falls on me, For just one moment I can see
    Bm7b5     E      Bm7b5    E
The pale blue sky, I close my eyes because


    A                     Bm/A        C#m/A        D/A
The world's so bright and beautiful I have to look away
A                  Bm/A       C#m/A          D/A    A  Em7
Braced against the beauty of another perfect day
C          Dm7            C               F/D
As I go to pieces and the breeze blows me away
         Amaj7       Cmaj7/A   D       Bm7b5
One more blue            sunny day
