Morning Song To Sally     Jerry Jeff Walker

Capo 1st fret

(A)  (D)  (A)(A4)(A) (A4)(A)  (D)  (A)(A4)(A) (A4)(A)
As morning light stretched (E)in across my (F#m)bed,
I thought of (Dm)you, hmm hmm hmm(A)mm. (A4)(A)
Remembering your (E)laughing eyes and (F#m)all we said,
I love you, (Dm)too, hmm hmm hmm(A)mm. (A4)(A)
And as (C#m)all my thoughts of you pass 'fore my (D)face a thousand (A)times, (A4)(A)
The (C#m)way you race my heart, I cannot (D)say it all in (A)lines.
(D)  (A)(A4)(A) (A4)(A)  (D)  (A)(A4)(A) (A4)(A)

Our short time to(E)gether lasts so (F#m)long,
Makes me (Dm)strong, hmm hmm hmm(A)mm, (A4)(A)
As two weeks came and (E)went and you and (F#m)I were gone,
Living (Dm)on, hmm hmm hmm(A)mm. (A4)(A)
For it (C#m)seems our love was destined to be (D)caught in other (A)nets, (A4)(A)
But the (C#m)love we held so brief I'd chance a(D)gain without re(A)grets.
(D)  (A)(A4)(A) (A4)(A)  (D)  (A)(A4)(A) (A4)(A)

We kissed goodbye so (E)smooth, it turned me (F#m)round,
Round and (Dm)round, hmm hmm hmm(A)mm, (A4)(A)
But our cool sometimes re(E)turns to put me (F#m)on,
Slightly (Dm)down, hmm hmm hmm(A)mm. (A4)(A)
For we (C#m)each have things to do before our (D)time alone is (A)done, (A4)(A)
These (C#m)thoughts of you here down the line prove our (D)love has just be(A)gun.
(D)  (A)(A4)(A) (A4)(A)  (D)  (A)(A4)(A) (A4)(A)

Yeah, standing by the (E)road has been my (F#m)song before,
Much too (Dm)long, hmm hmm hmm(A)mm, (A4)(A)
But now, somehow, I'm (E)forced to see me (F#m)there once more,
And that's this (Dm)song, hmm hmm hmm(A)mm. (A4)(A)
My (C#m)waking thoughts of you are but ex(D)tensions of my (A)dreams, (A4)(A)
With(C#m)out you here beside me, I'll never (D)know all that they (A)mean.
(D)  (A)(A4)(A) (A4)(A)  (D)  (A)(A4)(A) (A4)(A)

So as morning light stretched (E)in across my (F#m)bed,
I thought of (Dm)you, hmm hmm hmm(A)mm, (A4)(A)
Remembering your (E)laughing eyes and (F#m)all we said,
I love you, (Dm)too, hmm hmm hmm(A)mm. (A4)(A) 
And as (C#m)all my thoughts of you pass 'fore my (D)face a thousand (A)times, (A4)(A)
The (C#m)way they race my heart, I cannot (D)say it all in (A)lines.
(D)  (A)(A4)(A) (A4)(A)  (D)  (A)(A4)(A) (A4)(A)
