_ _ _ [A#] _ You were wonderful.
Boy, is the old lady upstairs going to be sore.
We have the lady I introduced to [D] you earlier.
Are you comfortable? _
[B] Not really.
Let's see.
It's the Naga.
It's about the Naga hide things with the plastic.
Naga hide.
Do you think that's a little precious?
We actually chopped the feet off eight Naga elephants.
_ We're like little elves sitting here.
I would like you to meet a true musical artist.
Her name is Joni Mitchell and she is standing to my right.

_ _ _ [A] _ _ [E]
I _ _ _ _ _
[B] woke up, it was a Chelsea morning [E] and the first thing that I heard [A] was a song [E] outside my window.
And traffic wrote the words.
It came [A] a ringing up [E] like Christmas bells and wrapping [B] up like pipes _ and drums. _
Oh, won't you stay?
We'll put on a [Em] date and we'll [B] wear it till the [E] night comes.
_ _ _ _ _ _
[B] I woke up, it was a Chelsea [E] morning and the first thing that I saw [A] was the sun through [E] yellow curtains.
[C#m] Rainbow [E] on my wall, blue, [A] red, green and [E] gold to welcome you.
[F#] Crimson crystal gates to [B] welcome you. _ _ _
Oh, won't you [A] stay?
We'll put on a [Em] date.
There's a sun [F#] show every second.
_ _ [E] _
_ _ _ _ [A] _
[E] Now the curtain opens on a portrait of today.
[A] And the streets are [E] paved with passersby and pigeons fly and papers [A] lie waiting to [C#m] blow away. _
[B] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning and the first thing that I knew there [A] was milk and
toast [E] and honey and a bowl of orange juice too.
[A] And the sun poured [E] in like butterscotch and [A] stuck to all my _ [B] senses. _ _
_ _ _ Oh, won't you stay?
We'll put on a date and we'll talk in [E] prison tense. _ _ _ _ _
When _ [A] the [E] curtain closes and [B] the rainbow runs away, [A] I will bring you incense owls [B] by night,
by [E] candlelight, by jewel light [A] if only you [B] will stay.
_ Pretty baby, won't you wake up?
It's a Chelsea morning.
