Hold the Morning Chords & Lyrics by Hey Marseilles
Hold the Morning
guitar chords lyrics
I think this is mostly correct except for the Dm chord, which doesn't sound perfect but
is fairly close if you omit playing the E string, making the chord something like: xx023x
If you have any corrections (especially if you can work out what the Dm should actually
be!) please email me at get.off.my.suit(at)gmail(dot)com, or submit a new version if you
are that way inclined :)
Standard Tuning
Capo 2
C
Thank you for the invite
F C
To dance on golden streets
C
Leave the broken skyline
F C
And charcoal cloud debris
Dm F C
I would likely join you if I weren't busy
Dm F C
But tonight my confession list is long
G F C
I will sit back, relax, and hold my head to the sun
G F C
Sit back, relax, and hold my head to the sun.
C
We will sing to thunder
F C
Clap as the earth shakes
C
Hug under a hurricane
F C
As we bypass the fiery lake
Dm F C
I will read my scripture in Dostoevsky
Dm F C
Change my television to twenty three
G F C
I will sit back, relax and wait for what's coming to me
G F C
Sit back, relax and hold my head to the sea.
F C G C
We will leave our sails on trees
F C G C
While chariots swing by the breeze
F C G C
Lift our lamps unto the streets
F C G Dm
May all the kings and soldiers see
F G C
Our lives are lonely enough without destruction
Dm F
Calm your cares and families
G
And I will hold the morning for you
C F C
Take the time for townships and classics to be read
C F C
Finding all the soft skin that will fit in a feather bed
Dm F C
Let me spread my paper and sleep for centuries
Dm F C
The door will be there if you choose to return
G F C
I will sit back, relax and watch the mountaintops burn
G F C
Sit back, relax and wait for my voice to be heard.
F C G C
We will leave our sails on trees
F C G C
While chariots swing by the breeze
F C G C
Lift our lamps unto the streets
F C G C
May all the kings and soldiers see
Dm F G C
All our lives are lonely enough without destruction
Dm F
Calm your cares and families
G C
And be part of division
Dm F G C
All our lives are lonely enough without destruction
Dm F
Calm your cares and families
G
And I will hold the morning for you
G C
And I will hold the morning for you
