This Side Of The Morning

Intro:     E - A - E - A - E - A - B      3x


E         F#m         A           B
    No -      body's     perfect
            E                      F#m
and that's     something that I'm       sure
A            B
     she'll     know
       E                      F#m
Cause     trying to tell her       lies
          A            B
from the     truth at     times
         G#7                             A       A
is like       trying to divide ice from     snow

E               F#m             A        B
    And when I      knew it was     over
   E                 F#m
I     jumped into a      taxi and said just
A                   B
     guess were to    go
         E                    F#m
And the     driver turned a -       bout and said,
      A                  B
Fi -     nding what you    want
         G#7                             A       A
is like       trying to divide ice from     snow


Chorus:
     B         B
So     here I     sit
A                   A
   rolling back to     bed
         B
Knowing     love is a hazard
G#m                C#m           A
     That I never       guessed
           E                 A
But from     this   side of     morning
                  B       B/A -
I couldn't care     less
B/Ab        B/F#                E
        I        couldn't care     less.
(E) - A - E - A - E - A - B      2x


E        F#m          A            B
   No -       body's     helpless
               E            F#m
Although I' -     ve never       felt this
A                 B
   helpless be -     fore
     E                  F#m
And     trying to per -       suade myself
A                    B
   not to think a -     bout her
         G#7                             A               A
Is like       trying to tell the clouds     not to pour

E            F#m            A         B
   so I put       down the     bottle
             E                      F#m
While in my     head time is col -       lapsing and the
A                B
   currents run     cold
    E                   F#m
So     I can curse her       memory
     A             B
But     don't try      telling me
      G#7
that       she was not an emerald
      A
in a     mountain of coal
                   G#7
Or that there's a       crock of cures for cancer
       A
At the     end of the rainbow.


Chorus:
    B          B
So     here I     sit
A                   A
   rolling back to     bed
         B
Knowing     love is a hazard
C#m               A           F#m
    That I never     guessed
           E                 A
But from     this   side of     morning
                 B         B/A - B/Ab - B/F#
I couldn't care     less


Break:
     B
And     she's the kind of girl
                  A                      E
who won't for -     give but will for -     get
    A
So     take my from this party, driver
B
   put me back to bed
   B
I     wanted to be loved
              A                   E
but just got     laughed at in -     stead
    A                       F#m         F#m
So     if this taxi is for        hire
          A
I'll get    in the back
                  F#m
Just to feel the       friction of the tarmac
         B7
and the      tyres.
E - A - E - A - E - A - B      2x


      E       F#m           A           B
So       no -       body's     perfect
            E                     F#m
and that's     something that I'm       sure
A           B
    she'll     know
      E                  F#m
And     trying to per -       suade myself
A                    B
   not to think a -      bout her
         G#7                                     A
Is like       trying to tell the crockels not to     crow
         G#7
Or like       trying to tell the striker
        A
Not to      think about the goal


Outro:
    B          B
So     here I     sit
A                   A
   rolling back to     bed
         B
Knowing     love is a hazard
B/F#                A          A/E
      That I never     guessed
           E                 A
But from     this   side of     morning
            E                 A
Yeah from     this   side of     morning
            E                 A
Yeah from     this   side of     morning
  B - B/A - B/Ab              B/F#
I                   couldn't        care
E        A      E      A
