I know the sun's about to come up [Bm] I close [B] my [Em] eyes anyway
[D] My mouth is [A] dry and the sheets are [Em] cold And we'll be still [Bm] come [Em] break of day
[D]
You called me up [A] just to surprise [Em] me To hear my voice, see what I'd say
[A] I only whispered then [D] hung [Em] up I whispered wait [F#] till break [Em] of day
[D]
At the break of day [Em] I'm ending all of it
[F#m] And so [Bm] don't say [G] you've had a ball
[Em] Dawn is mine but I [B] will share [F#m] it
With whatever bird will [G] wear it On her body bare and pink
[A] Now what do you think of break of day?
[D]
I locked my door [A] and I should [D] unlock it [Em] What if you [B] should come this way?
[D] And in and [A] have a drink [D] and dancing [Em] Dancing [B] till the [Em] break of day
[D]
And then to bed [E] we'd [D] dance to war [E] And tiredly [B] kiss and roll [A] in hay
[D] But waking in [A] the evening [D] I [Em] see You left after [B] break [Em] of [D] day
At the break of day [Em] I'm ending all of it
[F#m] And so don't say [G] you've had a ball
[Em] Dawn is mine but I will [A] share it
[F#m] With whatever bird will wear [G] it On her body bare and [A] pink
