As recorded by Ron Pope (2024 release) [Intro] C Em F C G [Verse 1]
          C
There you were in Butte, Montana

        Em
Big Sky angel on the run

         F
Then the mist off Allatoona

        C                    G
Back in Georgia where you're from

        C
We were two birds on the water

         Em
Swimming circles in the sun

       F
I have loved you since my bones were young

    C                G
Who knew what we'd become?
[Chorus]
       F
In the morning with the coffee on

  C             G
Before the baby wakes

        F
See you sitting there in silence oh

     C
Just waiting on the day

G         F
I cherish every single moment

          Am        G           F
Cause one day we'll both be gone

                        G         C
In the morning with the coffee on
[Verse 2]
C
I stood trembling at the altar

       Em
And my tears they ran so hot

     F
If I robbed a bank in Tucson

          C               G
You would fire the second shot

               C
I've been your partner in the sweetness

             Em
I'll be your partner in the grave

       F
I have watched you like a sunset

        C                G
Glowing orange above the waves
[Chorus]
       F
In the morning with the coffee on

  C             G
Before the baby wakes

        F
See you sitting there in silence oh

     C
Just waiting on the day

G         F
I cherish every single moment

          Am        G           F
Cause one day we'll both be gone

                        G
In the morning with the coffee on
[Interlude] C G/B Am [Bridge]
      G            C         G/B Am
I get distant as a stranger

        G                C    G/B Am
Then blaspheme and supplicate

     G                 C       Am G
I am sure it's hard to love me

F                              G
But you don't make it seem that way
[Interlude] C Em F C G [Chorus]
       F
In the morning with the coffee on

  C             G
Before the baby wakes

        F
See you sitting there in silence oh

     C
Just waiting on the day

G         F
I cherish every single moment

          Am        G           F
Cause one day we'll both be gone

                        G
In the morning with the coffee on
