Verse:
E MajorE
Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning, and the first thing that I heard
A augmentedA E MajorE F# minorF#m E MajorE
Was a song outside my window, and the traffic wrote the words
A augmentedA G# minorG#m
It came ringing up like Christmas bells
F# minorF#m BB
And rapping up like pipes and drums
D MajorD E MajorE
Oh, won't you stay? We'll put on the day
A augmentedA E MajorE
And we'll wear it 'till the night comes
Verse:
E MajorE
Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning, and the first thing that I saw
A augmentedA E MajorE F# minorF#m E MajorE
Was the sun through yellow curtains, and a rainbow on my wall
A augmentedA G# minorG#m
Blue, red, green and gold to welcome you
F# minorF#m BB
Crimson crystal beads to beckon
D MajorD E MajorE
Oh, won't you stay? We'll put on the day
A augmentedA E MajorE
There's a sun show every second
Bridge:
A augmentedA G# minorG#m F# minorF#m E MajorE
Now the curtain opens on a portrait of today
A augmentedA G# minorG#m
And the streets are paved with passers by
F# minorF#m BB
And pigeons fly and papers lie, just waiting to blow away
Verse:
E MajorE
Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning, and the first thing that I knew
A augmentedA E MajorE F# minorF#m E MajorE
There was milk and toast and barley, and a bowl of oranges too
A augmentedA G# minorG#m
And the light poured in like butterscotch
F# minorF#m BB
And stuck to all my senses
D MajorD E MajorE
Oh, won't you stay? we'll put on the day
A augmentedA E MajorE
And we'll talk in present tenses
Bridge:
A augmentedA G# minorG#m F# minorF#m E MajorE
Now the curtain closes and the rainbow runs away
A augmentedA G# minorG#m
I will bring you incense owls by night
F# minorF#m BB
By candlelight, by jewel-light, if only you will stay
N.C.
Pretty baby, won't you
E MajorE
Wake up, it's a Chelsea morning
