One Day I Slowly Floated Away

F         Dm
One day I slowly floated away
F         Dm
One day I slowly floated away
F
All the war horses wore rubber bands
    C
To hide their hooves from sinking sand
        F
The commander in charge was hoping that
       C
Their destiny was not to die

[Chorus]

Am
Wake up in the morning I shall
F
Wake up and so shall you
   Am
And I wake up, the sun is beautiful
F                        Am
And it is warming you and I
F             Am
Fragile as we lie

[Verse 2]

F                          Dm
Hard to foresee the future our bodies are growing thin
F                              Dm
Glimpsing the peeling paint of the nurse's ivory chin
        F
You've got a lot of nerve coming here
      C
Your eyes are beating rhythms way
F
Faster than the speeding bullet that
C
Took the life of your radio

[Chorus]

Am
Wake up in the morning I shall
F
Wake up and so shall you
   Am
And I wake up, the sun is beautiful
F                        Am
And it is warming you and I
F             Am
Fragile as we lie

[Bridge]

G
And in the corner chair
Dm
Soft and soap-scented
    G                  Dm
My darling cries apologies
    G
We foresee the mercy
        Dm
That's been shown my young limbs
      G                     Dm
Will not go unthanked or unseen

[Chorus]

Am
Wake up in the morning I shall
F
Wake up and so shall you
    Am
And I wake up, the sun is beautiful
F                        Am
And it is warming you and I
F             Am
Fragile as we lie

[Outro]

Am      F   Am
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Am      F   Am
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
