Getting Up Early - Tom Paxton

Getting up [G]early to see the [C]mist still kissing the [G]land
I watch the [Em]sun rise the way the [Am]great creator [D]planned
I walk a[Bm]long grass, I get my [C]legs all covered in [G]dew
Getting up early, [D]remembering [G]you
Getting up early, [D]remembering [G]you

Out in the meadow I see the cows beginning to graze
I watch the crow fly, I see the sun start burning the haze
These sunny mornings there's not a whole lot left to do
Getting up early, remembering you
Getting up early, remembering you

Chorus:
How [D]many [Em]times did we breathe the morning [A]sun?
And send the [Em]stars off to bedtime one by [A]one
We'd sing [G]Mis[D]ter [Em]Tambourine man [C]then[Am]
Fall into each [A]other's arms a[D]gain

Getting up early these days I just can't stay in bed
I make the coffee, an old song runs around my head
Out on the backwoods I've got a long day to get through
Getting up early, remembering you
Getting up early, remembering you

Repeat chorus and last verse.
