Chelsea Morning

	  		
Intro E 

Verse 
E 
Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning, and the first thing that I heard 
      A               E               F#m               E 
Was a song outside my window, and the traffic wrote the words 
       A                G#m 
It came ringing up like Christmas bells 
    F#m             B 
And rapping up like pipes and drums 
    D                     E 
Oh, won't you stay? We'll put on the day 
          A                 E 
And we'll wear it 'till the night comes 

Verse 
E 
Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning, and the first thing that I saw 
        A                  E               F#m           E 
Was the sun through yellow curtains, and a rainbow on my wall 
      A                      G#m 
Blue, red, green and gold to welcome you 
        F#m              B 
Crimson crystal beads to beckon 
    D                     E 
Oh, won't you stay? We'll put on the day 
          A              E 
There's a sun show every second 

Bridge 
A               G#m        F#m           E 
Now the curtain opens on a portrait of today 
        A                      G#m 
And the streets are paved with passers by 
    F#m                                               B 
And pigeons fly and papers lie, just waiting to blow away 

Verse 
E 
Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning, and the first thing that I knew 
          A                  E             F#m             E 
There was milk and toast and barley, and a bowl of oranges too 
        A                    G#m 
And the light poured in like butterscotch 
    F#m             B 
And stuck to all my senses 
    D                     E 
Oh, won't you stay? we'll put on the day 
          A               E 
And we'll talk in present tenses 

Bridge 
A               G#m            F#m           E 
Now the curtain closes and the rainbow runs away 
       A                 G#m 
I will bring you incense owls by night 
   F#m                                           B 
By candlelight, by jewel-light, if only you will stay 
N.C. 
Pretty baby, won't you 
E 
Wake up, it's a Chelsea morning
