verse 1 

         C          C/B 
Were the nights any sweeter 
    Am           C            F            Am Dm F 
The mornings any cooler, when she was here? 
   G                  Dm            Em            C              C/B  Am G 
Or was the mind grown accustomed to hearing "Good morning Dear"? 

verse 2 

         C                  C/B 
Should I still feel all the sunshine 
       Am        C                      F               Am Dm F 
That remembering brings to mind with my thoughts of her? 
      G            Dm           Em                C            C/B Am G 
Lord, we both know things could never ever be the way they were 

verse 3 

    C             C/B 
Her little girl illusions 
          Am         C              F              Am Dm F 
Built the wall of confusion between right and wrong 
     G      Dm      Em          Dm          C                 C/B Am G 
That stands between her and the dream I had cherished so long 

verse 4 

    C         C/B 
Now faded and tattered, 
     Am       C             F           Am Dm F 
once all that mattered when she was here 
      G          Dm            Em            C             C/B Am G 
And a mind grown accustomed to hearing "Good morning dear" 

Verse 5 

         C          C/B 
Were the nights any sweeter 
    Am           C            F            Am Dm F 
The mornings any cooler, when she was here? 
   G                  Dm            Em            C              C/B  Am G 
Or was the mind grown accustomed to hearing "Good morning Dear"?
