I was running late for work
     Am               C
So I didn't change my shirt
                F            
The evening's drinks left a 
          C           G
lingering taste in my mouth
           F                  G
And when I left you were fast asleep
Am             C
Tangled in the sheets, 
           F
and on the bus 
           C                  G
I could've sworn it was all a dream
G                           
That didn't happen to me

    F               G
And then I felt the scrapes
         Am              C
From the slippery subway grate.
           F
Oh how you laughed
           C           G
At my complete lack of grace.
    F             G
But I could not recall
  Am           C
A more perfect fall
                     F
Cause when I looked up 
            C                     G
into your eyes it didn't hurt at all.

      F                      C      
And I thought, be still my heart
     Am                   F          G
This could be a brand new start, with you.
  Am             C          Am
And it will be clear if I wake up 
                 F         G        
and you're still here with me in the morning.

and you're still here with me in the morning.
