{start_of_verse: Verse 1}
The [Dm]dawn creeps 'cross the [DmM7]pillow, where the [Dm7]face of an [Dm6]angel
Lies [Em7]cradled in a nest of tangled [Dm/A]hair
And the [Dm]smile of con[DmM7]tentment on your [Dm7]face while you've been [Dm6]sleepin'
Keeps me [Em7]goin', makes me know just why I'm [Dm/A]here [Dm]
{end_of_verse}
{start_of_chorus: Chorus 1}
And I [F]don't believe you'll ever find
a [F]thought will ever cross my mind to [A/E]leave [A7]
I'd die from [D]loneliness, [Dsus] I need [D]your onlyness, [Dsus]
a place for my [D]soul to rest, yes, I need [A7]your love,
to make my life [D]beautiful

{start_of_verse: Verse 2}
The [Dm]alarmclock rings at [DmM7]seven and I [Dm7]feel a stir be[Dm6]side me
I [Em7]hear your gentle footsteps on the [Dm/A]floor
I [Dm]raise up from my [DmM7]pillow, just in [Dm7]time to catch a [Dm6]small glimpse
Of a [Em7]housecoat swishing through the kitchen [Dm/A]door [Dm7]

{start_of_verse: Verse 3}
I [Dm]watch my shaving [DmM7]razor gliding [Dm7]smoothly on the [Dm6]face
Of a [Em7]happy man who loves to live at [Dm/A]home
And the [Dm]sweetest voice I [DmM7]ever heard is [Dm7]calling me to [Dm6]breakfast
I [Em7]don't know how I made it on my [Dm/A]own [Dm7]
