Marietta,
You lost me a long time ago,
in your midnight,
the flood and the fire of my soul

And I let you in [C/B]again, I let you in again,[C/B]
You sleep with the lights on,
I let you [C/B]in again

Marietta,
the loneliness burns at your door,
in your midnight,
she seeps through the cracks in your floor

And I let you in again, I [C/B]let you in again,[C/B]
You sleep with the lights on,
what you call your family are gone
I let you i[C/B]n again
and patiently wait for your storm.

The worry of what couldn’t be,
the love for the lust of your name,
of losing, of winning, of striving, of leaving
and stealing and breaking and shame.
And I am that man

The worry of what couldn’t be,
the love for the lust of your name,
of losing, of winning, of striving, of leaving,
of stealing and breaking and shame,
of fighting and failing and lying and telling yourself
that you’re clean of the blame.

I let you [C/B]in again, I let you in[C/B] again,
you sleep with the lights on,
what you call your family are gone
I let you [C/B]in again
and patiently wait for your storm.

Tuning: Standard

Intro: (F Bb) x2

Then came the morning
It was bright, like a light that you kept from your smile
Then came the morning
Like a flood from the storm that you kept from my heart

Take the dawn with you when you leave
Wash my hands of all this broken [(C)]heave
Never forget what you thought you’d never be[(F#)]
If you ever let me

Break the spell of tryin’
Leavin’ what we[C7+] could have found and

Then came the morning
It was bright, like a light that you kept from your smile
Then came the morning
Like a flood from the storm that you kept from my heart

Take my words, breathe them out like smoke
Burn every single letter that I [(C)]wrote
Let the pages turn to ash, I don’t want them back[(Am)]
Everything you always said to me
Starts to sound like broken glass on [(C)]streets
Spreaded out all over places where I sleep[(F#)]

Now you finally left me

Done with all your lying
Joy comes in the [C7+]morning
You won’t see me crying

Then came the morning
It was bright, like a light that you kept from your smile
Then came the morning
Like a flood from the storm that you kept from my heart

Then came the morning
It was lost when you left when you took what I felt
Then came the morning (Then came the morning)
Then came the morning (Then came the morning)

(In this part, stroke the Dm7 and G7 chords only 4 times)
When the sun breaks the cold
Not towards the line I thought you stole
Start to feel what I [C7+]felt way before
You broke down my front door
Wiped my heart up off the wooden floor
Now I don’t need your [C7+]smile anymore

Then came the morning
It was bright, like a light that you kept from your smile
Then came the morning
Like a flood from the storm that you kept from my heart

Then came the morning (Then came the morning)
Then came the morning (Then came the morning)

Then came the morning.
