Morning Is Broken chords by Lloyd Cole

Chords with lyrics

Verse 1:

E MajorE
You used to be mean

A augmentedA
You used to be cruel

E MajorE
But you were laughing then

A augmentedA
And it was no accident

E MajorE
Where did the mean man go

A augmentedA
Is he chasing his shadow?

E MajorE
Is he unhappy to report

A augmentedA
That the gentleman he found is a terrible bore?

E MajorE
You know it all

A augmentedA
You've got all the answers

E MajorE
But if that's the case

      A augmentedA
What's with the long face?

Pre Chorus:


A augmentedA
It's very easy to be brave

With your good foot in the grave

E MajorE
It's very easy to be cold

E MajorE                      A augmentedA
When there's no one in the world you want to know

A augmentedA            E MajorE
It's very easy to be suave

A augmentedA
When you're on your guard

A augmentedA
Like you always are

Chorus:

E MajorE          A augmentedA          E MajorE
The sun goes down and now the shadows arise

E MajorE          A augmentedA          E MajorE
The morning is broken as you mourn your life

 E MajorE         A augmentedA          E MajorE
You smile at your neighbors as you lock your doors

 E MajorE          A augmentedA          E MajorE
You face up the mirror, mister, pimp or whore ?

Verse 2:


E MajorE
Is it hard to let go

A augmentedA
At the foot of the rainbow

E MajorE
Just to be informed

A augmentedA
That the chase was your reward?

E MajorE
Here, have a crock of gold

A augmentedA
Keep it for when you're old

E MajorE
Like a week on Tuesday

A augmentedA
Hey, wise men say

Pre Chorus:


A augmentedA
It's very easy to be brave

With your good foot in the grave

E MajorE
It's very easy to be cold

E MajorE                      A augmentedA
When there's no one in the world you want to know

A augmentedA            E MajorE
It's very easy to be suave

A augmentedA
When you're on your guard

A augmentedA
Like you always are

Chorus:


E MajorE          A augmentedA          E MajorE
The sun goes down and now the shadows arise

E MajorE          A augmentedA          E MajorE
The morning is broken as you mourn your life

 E MajorE         A augmentedA          E MajorE

You face up the mirror, mister, pimp or whore ?
