D
I know the sun's about to come up
Em
I close my eyes anyway
D
My mouth is dry and the sheets are cold
Em
And will be still come break of day

D
You called me up just to surprise me
Em
To hear my voice, see what I'd say
D
I only whispered, and then hung up
Em
Whispered "wait til break of day"

D                   Em
At break of day I'm ending all of it
F#m          G
And so don't say you've had a ball
Em
Dawn is mine, but I will share it
F#m
With whatever bird will wear it
G
On her body bare and pink
A                                 D
Now what do you think of break of day

D
I locked my door, I should unlock it
Em
What if you should come this way
D
And in and have a drink and dancing
Em
Dancing till the break of day

D
And then to bed we'd dance towards
Em
And tiredly kiss and roll in hay
D
But waking in the evening I see
Em                      D
You left after break of day

D                   Em
At the break of day I'm ending all of it
F#m          G
And so don't say you've had a ball
Em
Dawn is mine, but I will share it
F#m
With whatever bird will wear it
G
On her body bare and pink
A                                 D
Now what do you think of break of day

At break of day I'm ending all of it
F#m          G
And so don't say you've had a ball
Em
Dawn is mine, but I will share it
F#m

G
On her body bare and pink
A                                 D
Now what do you think of break of day

D
I hate myself when I'm alone
Em
It's just with you I feel okay
D
And so tomorrow you'll feel sorrow
Em
When I am gone at break of day
