[Intro]
| E E4 E | Dadd4add9 | E | E |
[Verse 1]
D C Your long blonding hair of heavy salty sea Dsus2 C Like a curtain when it closed over and above me Em D Em D Em D Em Locked the vicious sun like the wings of passing gulls D C D D Empty you held nothing, hollow as the washed-up shells
[Chorus]
E E E E I woke up this morning with the Copa on my mind D A F#m F#m Those days of cryptic signals, I was sad to leave behind C C D E E A scarf tied to a shutter, no one else would look to find A A/G# Oh, I still wake up in the morning F#m E4 E With the Copa on my mind
[Post-Chorus]
| D | C | D | C |
[Verse 2]
D C Sitting on the rock that looked onto the ocean D C Walking to the waves as they brewed a magic potion Em D Em D Em D Em Calling them like faithless dogs, your commands and whims D C D D While the crashing on the rocks rose to the sky like ancient hills
[Chorus]
E E E E I woke up this morning with the Copa on my mind D A F#m F#m Those days of cryptic signals, I was sad to leave behind C C D E E A scarf tied to a shutter, no one else would look to find A A/G# Oh, I still wake up in the morning F#m E4 E With the Copa on my mind
[Solo]

[Verse 3]
D C You knew it was the end as you watched me from the gate Dadd4add9 C I waved my boarding pass and didn't hesitate Em D Em D Em D Em Security, security, I took off my shoes D Turned around and you were gone
[Outro]
E E E E Woke up this morning with the Copa on my mind
