Morning Song

tabbed this by ear from a performance on youtube of this song backstage at the newport folk festival . this is the link to the performance : the song is in standard tuning , capo on the 4th fret . the Intro has this as the basic melody with seth going back and forth between these notes and the root note of the chord above : G C E - 0 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - | B - - - 0 - 3 - - - - - 0 - - - - - - - - - - - - - 0 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - | G - - - - - - - - - 2 - - - 2 - 0 - 0 - - - - - 2 - - - 2 - 0 - 0 - - - - 0 - - - - - - - - - - - - - | D - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 0 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 0 - - - - 0 - 2 - - - - - - - - | A - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - | E - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - | Verse 1 : G C hurts so bad , you don’t come around here anymore . G worse than that , nothing’s really helping C G i’ve been thinking ’bout drinking again . G it’s alright if you finally stop caring , C just don’t go and tell someone that does . Am C cause even though i know there’s hope Am G in every morning song , Am C D G i have to find that melody alone . Verse 2 ( same pattern as Verse 1 ) : her name became the flame unto the fire . a magpie on a wire , warned of those . dead unto the high , shamelessly alive unto the low . it’s alright if you finally stop caring , just don’t go and tell someone that does . cause even though i know there’s hope in every morning song , i have to find that melody alone . Bridge : Am F we can go ahead if no one notices . C G what’s the point of it i have to ask? Am F or how you learn to see the hope eternally C G when you’re sure to be , oh . . . even less . Verse 3 : C F hurts so bad . , more than i expected that it would . C worse than that , it seems to be here lasting F C just a little longer than it should . G it’s alright if you finally stop caring , C just don’t go and tell someone that does . Am C cause even though i know there’s hope Am G in every morning song , Am C D G i have to find that melody alone . Am C D G i have to find that melody alone . Am C D G i have to find that melody alone . Am C D G i have to find that melody alone . Am C G i have to sing that melody alone . Outro : scott plays around with the melody a bit on the banjo with these chords in the background . G - C - D - G that’s the entire song! enjoy!
