This is a cover of a Bee Gees song titled “Morning Of My Life”. David Gray changed
the title to “In The Morning” and it appears on David Gray’s live cover album “A
Thousand Miles Behind”. The lyrics are not exact to the original Bee Gees version
as David Gray alters some of the lyrics.

In The Morning

In the morning
When the moon is at its rest

You will find me
At the time I love the best
Watching rainbows play in sunlight
Pools of water, I scream cold nights
It?s the morning
The morning of my life
Its the morning of my life

In the daytime
I will meet you as before

You will find me
In the soft wind down beside the ocean shore
Building castles in the shifting sand
In a world that nobody understands
It?s the morning
The morning of my life
Its the morning of my life

Its the morning of my life
And the minutes take so long to drift away
Please be patient with your life
It?s the morning and you’re still to live your day

In the night time
I will fly me to the moon
In the top right hand corner of my room
There we’ll stay ?til the sun shines another day
Play on clothes lines, I?ll be yawning
It?s the morning of my life
It?s the morning of my life

Its the morning of my life
And the minutes take so long to drift away
Please be patient with your life
It?s the morning and you’re still to live your day
It?s the morning and you’re still to live your day
It?s the morning and you’re still to live your day

Nightblindness

Seen David Gray play this live and he uses a capo on the 2nd fret. I think the guitar
a brighter tone when played this way.

Capo 2nd fret
All chords relative to capo

Verse:
A million to one outsiders
Nightblindness
Can?t see

Your bright eyes are what
The time is
Twenty-five past eternity

Hear you listening
To the silence
Coming closer
Now further away

Chorus:
What we gonna do
When the money runs out
I wish that there was something left to say
Where we going to find the eyes to see
The bright of day

Verse:
I?m sick of all the same romances
Lost chances
Cold storms

Propping mountains up
On matchsticks
Dragging baskets
Full of bones

And honey please don?t stop
Your talking
?cause there?s a feeling
Won?t leave me alone

Chorus:
What we gonna do
When the money runs out
I wish that there was something left to say
Where we going to find the eyes to see
The bright of day

What we gonna do
When the money runs out
I wish that there was something left to say
Where we going to find the eyes to see
The bright of day

F C G etc……..
The bright of day
The bright of day

I noticed that the versions of this song here were
either wrong or incomplete, so I thought I’d post
the correct one. Enjoy! Listen to the record to
figure out the timing and the strumming pattern.

Standing at the door of the Pink Flamingo crying in the rain
It was a kind of so-so love and I’m going to make sure it doesn’t happen again
You and I had to be the standing joke of the year
You were a runaround, a lost and found and not for me, I feel

Take your hands off me, hee_____ey
I don’t belong to you, you see_______
Take a look in my face for the last time
I never knew you, you never knew me
Say hello, goodbye
Say hello and wave goodbye________

We tried to make it work, you in a cocktail skirt
And me in a suit, but it just wasn’t me
You’re used to wearing less, and now you’re life’s a mess so insecure you see
Well I’ve put up with all the scenes
and this is one scene that’s going to be played my way

[Repeat Chorus]
Say hello and wave goodbye________

Under the deep red lights I can see the makeup sliding down
Well hey little girl you will always make up
So take off that unbecoming frown
As for me, well, I’ll find someone who’s not going cheap in the sales
A nice little housewife who’ll give me the steady life
And not keep going off the rails

[Repeat Chorus]
Say hello and wave goodbye________
Say hello and wave goodbye________

INTRO times2

VERSE1

As I’m leaving

A change comes on my eyes

These thoughts persuading me

With mumbles strange goodbyes

CHORUS

And through the water

Through the ring

To the soul of everything

I wash my heart out

On the stones

And I’m almost gone

Continues as same pattern for rest of song.

VERSE2
And there’s no meaning
In clothes and coffee cups
Cheap hotel furniture
Where silence never stops

CHORUS times 1

VERSE3
And now I’m dreaming
I’m staring at the walls
At cars all frozen now
In late night waterfalls

Finnish on CHORUS again.

This is my first submission. Its not perfect, but I think sounds pretty good on the
guitar.

Capo on 5th fret (All chords relative to the capo)

Verse Chords (Like a bird)

Em tap first fret, 2nd string (listen to the song to hear what I mean).

D/F# along with 4th string 4th fret and shifting up to the fifth fret (I use my pinkie finger).

(Alternately you can play a D chord and hammer on from the 2nd fret to the third on the
e string. It sounds different from the recording but sounds alright playing by yourself.)

First Short Chorus (First chance)

D/F# or just D
[C/G]
Verse Chords again

Chorus (First Chance I get)

D/F# or just D
[C/G]

Bridge Part (Ooooo, Ooooo)

D (pull-off 2nd fret 1st string to open string)
Em (pull-off 3rd fret 1string to open string)

The rest should repeat the verse and chorus chord structure. Hope this makes some sense
helps you play this new track.
