2. Chords (I actually like playing it this way a bit more)

   G, C/D, Am, C

G                 C/D
 The morning will come
        Am
 In the press of every kiss
           C
 With your head upon my chest
G                C/D
 Where I will annoy you
     Am
 With every waking breath
       C
 Until you decide to wake up.
