[Verse 1]
---------------------
D#                C#
Goldenrod and the fourH stone
    A#m                         G#
The things I brought you when I found out
        D#
You had cancer of the bone
C# A#m G#    D#                  C#
      Your father cried on the telephone
       A#m                    G#
And he drove his car into the Navy yard
        D#
Just to prove that he was sorry

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
C# A#m G#      D#                   C#
      In the morning, through the window shade
         A#m                         G#
When the light pressed up against your shoulderblade
        D#
I could see what you were reading
C# A#m G#       D#             C#
      All the glory that the Lord has made
        A#m                     G#
And the complications you could do without
       D#
When I kissed you on the mouth
C# | A#m | G# 

[Post-Chorus (1)]

D# | A#m | C# | G# 
D# | A#m | C# | G# 

[Verse 2]
---------------------
D#                   C#
Tuesday night at the Bible study
   A#m                G#
We lift our hands and pray over your body
    D#
But nothing ever happens
C# A#m G# D#            C#
       I remember at Michael's house
       A#m                  G#
In the living room when you kissed my neck
      D#
And I almost touched your blouse

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
C# A#m G#      D#             C#
      In the morning at the top of the stairs
          A#m                      G#
When your father found out what we did that night
        D#
And you told me you were scared
C# A#m G#       D#             C#
      All the glory when you ran outside
          A#m                      G#
With your shirt tucked in and your shoes untied
        D#
And you told me not to follow you
C# | A#m | G# 

[Post-Chorus (2)]
---------------------
D# | C# | A#m | G# 
D# | C# | A#m | G# 
D# | C# | A#m | G# 
D# | C# | A#m | G# 

[Verse 3]
---------------------
D#                  C#
Sunday night when I cleaned the house
  A#m                      G#
I found the card where you wrote it out
         D#
With the pictures of your mother
C# A#m G# D#                  C#
       On the floor at the great divide
        A#m                    G#
With my shirt tucked in and my shoes untied
     D#
I am crying in the bathroom

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
C# A#m G#      D#               C#
      In the morning when you finally go
        A#m                    G#
And the nurse runs in with her head hung low
        D#
And the cardinal hits the window
C# A#m G#      D#             C#
      In the morning in the winter shade
       A#m                    G#
On the first of March, on the holiday
  D#
I thought I saw you breathing
C# A#m G#       D#             C#
      All the glory that the Lord has made
        A#m                  G#
And the complications when I see His face
       D#
In the morning in the window
C# A#m G#       D#            C#
      All the glory when He took our place
       A#m                      G#
But He took my shoulders and He shook my face
       D#                        C#    A#m G#
And He takes and He takes and He takes.
