Chelsea Morning Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][C][D][D]
[G][D][E][D]

[Verse 1]
[C]Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning,
and the [D]first thing that I heard
Was a [G]song outside my [D]window
and the [Em]traffic wrote the [D]words
It came a-[G]reeling up like [D]Christmas bells
and [Em]rapping up like [A]pipes and drums

[Chorus 1]
[C]Oh, won't you stay
We'll [G]put on the day
And we'll [F]wear it [C]'till the [D]night comes
[D][D][D]

[Verse 2]
[D]Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning,
and the [D]first thing that I saw
Was the [G]sun through yellow [D]curtains,
and a [Em]rainbow on the [D]wall
Blue, red, [G]green and gold to [D]welcome you,
crimson [Em]crystal [A]beads to beckon

[Chorus 2]
[C]Oh, won't you stay
We'll [G]put on the day
There's a [F]sun show [C]every [D]second
[D][D][D][D]

[Bridge 1]
[G]Now the curtain ope[D]ns
on a [Em]portrait of to[D]day
And the [G]streets are paved with [D]passersby
And [Em]pigeons fly
And [D]papers lie
[G]Waiting to blow [Em]away

[Interlude 1]
[C][C][D][D]

[Verse 3]
[C]Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning,
and the [D]first thing that I [C]knew
There was [G]milk and toast and [D]honey
and a [Em]bowl of [D]oranges, too
And the [G]sun poured in like [D]butterscotch
and [Em]stuck to all my [A]senses

[Chorus 3]
[C]Oh, won't you stay
We'll [G]put on the day
And we'll [F]talk in [C]present [D]tenses
[G][D][D]

[Bridge 2]
[G]When the curtain clo[D]ses
and the [Em]rainbow runs a[D]way
I will [G]bring you incense [D]owls by [Em]night
By candlelight
[D]By jewel-light
If [G]only you [A]will stay
Pretty [D]baby, [G]won't you
[C]Wake up, it's a Chelsea morning[D]
