Good morning John
C
Ain't it great to see your future shining brighter
                        G7
Than the naked light of day
G7
You made it John
G7
But I confess there was a time or two
                                     C
I thought that you might let it slip away


[Verse]
C
I love you John
C
In the cold and holy darkness
                                        G7
You were always shinin' brighter than a star
G7
God bless you John
G7
For the love and joy you've given
                                    C
And the livin' inspiration that you are


[Verse]
C
You scared me John
C
Cause you crossed so many borders
                                   G7
Into danger with a price upon your head
G7
They got you John
G7
And it hurt to see so many friends
                               C
Who ran along beside you lyin' dead

[Verse]
C
I know you John
C
There ain't nothing you can't handle out there
                               G7
Ain't nothing bigger than your heart
G7
Keep shinin' John
G7
For you owe it to the others
                                      C
And the dark and holy wonder that you are

[Verse]
C
Hang in there John
C
It's a rocky road to glory
                                           G7
But the straightest and the strongest will survive
G7
Keep smilin' John
G7
We won't make it there tomorrow
                                      C
But today let's say we're lucky we're alive

[Verse]
C
I'll see you John
C
Though the best of good intentions
                                       G7
Have a way of gettin' scattered by the wind
G7
I'm leavin' John
G7
You can lose your mind and memory
                                    C
But you ain't gonna lose me as your friend


[Outro]
G7           C
Good morning John
