G6 D6/F# G6 D7/F# G C G Getting up early to see the mist still kissing the land. Bm Am I watch the sun rise the way the Great Creator planned. D Bm C G To walk the long grass, and get my legs all covered with dew. D7/F# G Getting up early, remembering you. D7/F# G Getting up early, remembering you.
Out in the meadow I see the cows beginning to graze.
I watch a crow fly, I see the sun start burning the haze.
These summer mornings there's not a whole lot left to do.
Getting up early, remembering you.
Getting up early, remembering you.
Em A How many times did we greet the morning sun, Em A And send the stars off to bedtime one by one? G G/F# Em C - C/B - Am We'd sing "Mister Tambourine Man", then A7 D - D/C - D/B We'd fall into each other's arms again.
Getting up early; these days I just can't stay in bed.
I make the coffee, an old song runs around my head.
Out on the back porch, I've got a long day to get through.
Getting up early, remembering you.
Getting up early, remembering you.
How many times did we greet the morning sun,
And send the stars off to bedtime one by one?
We'd sing "Mr. Tambourine Man", then
We'd fall into each other's arms again.
Getting up early; these days I just can't stay in bed.
I make the coffee, an old song runs around my head.
Out on the back porch, I've got a long day to get through.
Getting up early, remembering you.
Getting up early, remembering you.
