                       C Bm Am G
I woke up this morning

         G   Am Bm  C
With a smile on my face

    C   Bm   Am     G
I threw out those stones

       G   Am Bm  C
That stood in my way

       C  Bm Am G
And I put on a new pair

    G    Am Bm    C
Of hard walking shoes

   C   Bm  Am   G
I woke up this morning

 G   Am   Bm   F
Laughing the blues

Tells me I should be scared

         G
I don’t let it overwhelm me

I know that joy will be there

I say to the man

       G    Am   Bm   C
“This shit helps me think”

I don’t let it overtake me

              F   Em   Dm   C
