Listen to the morning music cursing

       D               A/C# 
As you know I've never been a

        D      A/C#       A/C     
But if you wonder why I never wrote 
 G
you a song
     Bb            A/C        D

I tried to put it into words, 
      A
but the words just sound like

I can't trust my fingers, I 
      A
can't trust my tongue
D          A/C#             B7  
The work is too important and 
      A
we're no longer young after all
D          A/C#             B7  
When I consider what you put up 
      A
with I'm amazed you still have skin
D          A/C#             B7  
When I consider what you mean to
      A
 me... it's everything
D          A/C#          
                       It's

 sleep
D  A/C#  B7   A     G
turn the TV off already curse the 
hours we have to keep

       D               A/C# 
as you know I've never been a

I've been in the tall grass all my 
life
        D      A/C#      A/C      
Until you came along now there's one
G
 less thing wrong
     Bb            A/C        D
even though happiness writes white

D  A/C#  B7   A     G
I know happiness writes white
I know happiness writes white
I know happiness writes white
I know happiness writes white
D  A/C#  B7   A     G (end on G)
I know hapinesss writes white


Notes: A/C# represents an A major 
chord with a C# in the bass.
So the bass line goes D, C#, B, A, G
 for the majority of the songt.
Also the song makes heavy use of a 
repeated A
(you can hear it on the up beats 
during the intro).
