Dm 
You know I love getting up in the morning  
          F                                 
When the sun first strikes the trees  
         Bb                 Am  
All the morning birds that sing above  
        Bb            C 
Still bring back memories  
      Dm 
Of a girl who stood beside me  
          F 
When the rights I did were wrong  
         Bb                 Am 
But she went back down the river  
              Bb                  C 
Just when I thought I could be strong  
         Bb                 F 
When I thought I could be strong,  
so I sing  
F                    Dm

Dm      
She never told me why she left me  
         F                
But the letter say goodbye  
        Bb               Am 
Now my mornings are for wond'ring  
         Bb               C 
And my nights to reason why   
        Dm 
Why a stranger comes to steal the love  
      F 
Of a girl I had to hold  
         Bb                 Am 
But she went back down the river  
              Bb                  C  
Just when I thought I could be strong  
         Bb                  F  
When I thought I could be strong,  
so I sing
