D                               Bm7
        When I wake up in the morning, love,
Gmaj9                                   Bbmaj7  Am7
        And the sunlight hurts my eyes,
D                                Bm7
        And something, without warning, love,
Gmaj9                     Bbmaj7
        Bears heavy on my mind,
C11                D11                      Gm7           Am7(type2)
Then I look at you,    and the world's al - right with me,
C11                  D11                  Gm7        Am7(type2)
Just one look at you,    and I know it's gonna be...

D                                 Bm7
        When I day that lies a - head of me,
Gmaj9                             Bbmaj7  Am7
        Seems impossible to face,
D                                Bm7
        When someone else, in - stead of me,
Gmaj9                           Bbmaj7
