Hold The Morning Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
[D]Thank you for the invite
[G]To dance on golden street[D]s
Leave the broken skyline
And [G]charcoal cloud [D]debris
[Bm]I would likely joi[G]n you
if I weren't [D]busy
But to[Bm]night my confes[G]sion list is long
[D]

[Verse 2]
I [A]will sit back, relax,
and hold [G]my head to the sun
[D]Sit[A] back, relax,
and [G]hold my head to the sun.
[D]

[Verse 3]
We will sing to thunder
[G]Clap as the earth [D]shakes
Hug under a hurricane
As we by[G]pass the fiery lake
[D]

[Verse 4]
[Bm]I will read my scr[G]ipture in Dostoevsky
[D]Cha[Bm]nge my televisio[G]n to twenty thr[D]ee
I [A]will sit back,
relax and wait [G]for what's coming to [D]me
[A]Sit back, relax and [G]hold
my head to the sea.
[D]

[Verse 5]
[G]We will [D]leave our [A]sails on [D]trees
While [G]chari[D]ots swing [A]by the [D]breeze
[G]Lift our [D]lamps [A]un to the [D]streets
May [G]all the [D]kings and [A]soldiers [Bm]see

[Verse 6]
Our lives are [G]lonely [A]enough
without destruc[D]tion
[Bm]Calm your cares and [G]families
And [A]I will hold the morning for you
[D]

[Verse 7]
Take the time for townships
and clas[G]sics to be [D]read
Finding all the soft skin that will
[G]fit in a feather [D]bed
[Bm]Let me spread my pap[G]er
and sleep for centur[D]ies
[Bm]The door will be there [G]if
you choose to return
[D]I wil[A]l sit back,
relax and [G]watch the [D]mountaintops burn
[A]Sit back, relax and wait [G]for
my voice to be [D]heard.

[Verse 8]
[G]We will [D]leave our [A]sails on [D]trees
While [G]chari[D]ots swing [A]by the [D]breeze
[G]Lift our [D]lamps un[A]to the [D]streets
May [G]all the [D]kings and [A]soldiers see

[Verse 9]
[Bm]All our lives are [G]lonely enough
[A]without destructio[D]n
[Bm]Calm your cares and fam[G]ilies
And [A]be part of divi[D]sion
[Bm]All our lives [G]are lonely e[A]nough
without destruc[D]tion
[Bm]Calm your cares and [G]families
And [A]I will hold the morning for you
And I will hold the morning for you.
