Intro.:  | (G)  |

(G) Good morning, John
Ain't it great to see your future shinin' brighter in the naked light of (D)day?
You made it, John
But I confess there was a time we two have thought that you might let it slip a-(G)way
I love you, John
In the cold and holy darkness, you were always shinin' brighter than a (D)star
God bless you, John
For the love and joy you've given as the livin' inspiration that you (G)are

(A) You scared me, John
'Cause you've crossed so many borders into danger with the price upon your (E)head
They got you, John
And it hurts to see so many friends who ran along beside you layin' (A)dead
I know you, John
There ain't nothin' you can't handle now, 'cause there ain't nothin' bigger than your (E)heart
Keep smilin', John
For you owe it to the others and the dark and holy wonder that you (A)are

Hang in there, John
It's a rocky road to glory, but the straightest and the strongest will sur-(E)vive
Keep smilin', John
We won't make it there tomorrow, but today let's say we're lucky we're a-(A)live
I see you, John
For the best of good intentions, have a way of getting' scattered by the (E)wind
I mean it, John
You can lose your mind or memory, but you ain't gonna lose me as your (A)friend

(A) Good mornin', John
