[dm]You know I love getting up in the morning
When the [F]sun first strikes the trees -- aaahhh
All the [Bb]morning birds that [am]sing above
Still [Bb]bring back memo[C]ries
Of a [dm]girl who stood beside me
When the [F]rights I did were wrong -- aaahhh
But she [Bb]went back down the [am]river
Just when I [Bb]thought I could be [C]strong
When I [Bb]thought I could be [F]strong, so I sing

[dm]She never told me why she left me
But the [F]letter say goodbye
Now my [Bb]mornings are for wond'[am]ring
And my [Bb]nights to reason [C]why
Why a [dm]stranger comes to steal the love
Of a [F]girl I had to hold ---- aaahhh
But she [Bb]went back down the [am]river
Just when I [Bb]thought I could be [C]strong
When I [Bb]thought I could be [F]strong, so I sing
