Another great single from the album of the same name. Dead easy
this one - its just an acoustic banging out the chords with a bit of
electric work during the chorus.

Come see me in the mornin'
C
Can't you see I'm tellin' stories,
Csus4 C
My sweet angel's everlasing true love ways,

I'll wait I'll sow the seed I set the

scene, and I'll watch the world go by.
Csus4 C (x2)
Verse 2
See me go through changes, revelations to blank pages,
I'll find a brighter guide to see me through.
While leaves fall to the ground - turn to brown through the day,
Just like you.
This is the part of the song where the electric comes in. It's disorted
and plays just the F chords.

Verse 3
I'll be there in the mornin'
Can't you see I'm tellin' stories,
My sweet angels everlasting true love ways,
While others turn to others, introduce yopu and walk right on through.
It's just about knowing where you come from being you,
And singing love songs can't begin to fill your day.
