Morning After
This is the studio version of Morning After, not the live version
which is found on the album Australia. The live version is the same
chords but is slightly different. This song is played with all
open chords and like all Howie songs, is very easy.
Am
Calcutta streams from porch lights
F
Where we opened up our parting gifts
C G
And you fell down the stairs on purpose
E|5/3/1-----------||
B|----------------||
G|----------------||
Am
And you drive to Europe in the rain
F
Your hair's done up (but no one's gonna see it)
C G
Well maybe you should drive me home, home...
Chorus:
Am F C G
What could be so wonder-ful about this?
Am F C G
What could be so wonder-ful?
Am F C G
The half-light wakes you up the morn-ing after
Am F C G
Fall down with me and roll a-round, now
Am F
Girl is cold, but so is he
C G
He's still warm, she's way too kind
Am F
When you walked in the morning after
C G
Looking good and you know it, yeah
The second verse follows the same pattern as the first:
Found out about the music
Is the CD jammed or upside-down?
I'd really like to feel you with dinner
And we're sitting on a city bench
Together in a tourist town
If the fashion ad were here you'd be in it, in it...
Chorus
Am
I'm closing my eyes and I'm spinning
Am F C G
Spin me a-way, a-way, a-way
Am F C G
What do I do when you say
Am F C G
It's o-kay, it's o-kay, it's o-kay...
Chorus
