-----------------------------..............
from 'Touch Me in the Morning' (1973)
CAPO 1st FRET
(Original Key: C#)
Chorus 1:
[Dm7] Touch me in the [C]mor-[Cmaj7]ning,[F]
[Dm7] Then just walk a-[C]way.[Cmaj7]
[Dm7] We don't have to[C]-mor-[Cmaj7]row,[F]
But we had yester-[Bb]day.[G]
Verse 1:
[C] Hey...
Wasn't it [Cmaj7]me who said,
That nothing [F]good's,
Gonna last for-[Dm7]ever?
[C] And wasn't it [Cmaj7]me who said,
Let's just be [F]glad,
For the time to-[Dm7]gether?
Bridge 1:
[G] It must've been hard,
To tell me,
[Bb] That you've given,
All you had to give.
[G] I can understand,
You're feeling that [Bb]way,
Everybody's got,
Their life to live.
Break:
Well, [F] I can [G]say goodbye,
In the [Em]cold morning [Am]light.
[F] But I can't [G]watch love die,
In the [Em]warmth of the [Am]night.
[F] If I've [Em]got to be [Am]strong,
Don't you know I need to,
[F] Have to-[Em]night,
When you're [Am]gone?
'Till you're gone,
I need [F]to lie here,[Em7]
And think about,
[Dm7] The last time that you'll;
Chorus 2:
[G7] Touch me in the [C]mor-[Cmaj7]ning,[F]
[Dm7] Then just close the [C]door.[Cmaj7]
[Dm7] Leave me as you [C]found [Cmaj7]me,
[F] Empty like be-[Bb]fore..[G].
Verse 2:
[C] Hey...
Wasn't it [Cmaj7]yesterday,
We used to [F]laugh,
At the wind be-[Dm7]hind us?
[C] Didn't we [Cmaj7]run away,
And hope that [F]time wouldn't,
Try to [Dm7]find us?
Bridge 1:
[G] Didn't we,
Take each other,
[Bb] To a place where,
No one's ever been?
[G] Yeah, I really need you,
Near me tonight,
[Bb] 'Cos you'll never,
Take me there again.
Break:
[F] Let me [G]watch you go,
With the [Em]sun in my [Am]eyes.
[F] We've seen how,
[G] Love can grow,
Now we'll [Em]see how it [Am]dies.
[F] If I've [Em]got to be [Am]strong,
Don't you know I need to,
[F] Have to-[Em]night,
When you're [Am]gone?
'Till you're gone,
I need to [F]hold you,
[Em7] Until the time,
Your [Dm7]hands reach out, and..[G7].
Chorus 3:
[Dm7] Touch me in the [C]mor-[Cmaj7]ning,[F]
[Dm7] Then just walk a-[C]way.[Cmaj7]
[Dm7] We don't have to[C]-mor-[Cmaj7]row,[F]
But we had yester-[Bb]day.[G]
