[Verse 1]
G               Gadd11  G
I have seen the morning burning
C
golden on the mountains
       G     Gadd11  G
in the skies,
G               Gadd11 G
Aching with the fee----ling of
    C
the freedom of an eagle
         G     Gadd11  G  Gadd11  G
when she flies,
C
Turning on the world the way
she smiled upon my soul
         G   Gadd11  G
as I lay dying,
G
Healing as the colours
       D   Dsus4
in the sunshine
        D              G   Gadd11  G
and the shadows of her eyes.

[Verse 2]
G             Am  G/B        C
Waking in the morning to the feeling
                     G     Gadd11  G
of her fingers on my skin,
G              Am     G/B    C
Wiping out the traces of the people
and the places
          G     Gadd11  G  Am  G/B
that I've been,
C
Teaching me that yesterday
was something that I
                 G   Gadd11  G
never thought of trying,
G
Lovin' her was easier than
D             Dsus4 D  G   Gadd11 G
anything I'll ever do again.

[Verse 3]
C
Coming close together with a feeling
                         G
that I've never known before,
Gadd11 G
in my  time,
D                         C
She ain't ashamed to be a woman
                  G Gadd11 G  Am G/B
or afraid to be a friend.
C
I don't know the answer to the
                          G
easy way she opened every door,
Gadd11 G
in my  mind,
G                             Dsus4
But dreaming was as easy as believing
       D           G   C  G
it was never gonna end.
