Verse 

    D                        G 
The morning lies heavy on me father 

  Em                               A 
I couldn't find the time to fall asleep 

      D                                    G 
And I couldn't stop from thinking, all the deeper 

           Em           G        A 
'Cause the morning lies heavy on me 

They said I didn't have to be there 'till tomorrow 
And there's friends of mine I've really got to see 
But it's not goodbye and only soon to follow 
And the morning lies heavy on me 


[Refrão]


         D                 G                  A         
Tell me, who's the one who fights until he's broken 

          D              G               A 
Is it the men who sit in judgement of us all 

           Em             G                     D      Bm 
I wouldn't care if it was their lives they were taking 

           G                            A 
They don't listen or even answer to the call 


And tomorrow I will be flying from the mainland 
And joining a new company 
And some of us will never see our homeland 
And the morning lies heavy on me 

(Chorus) 

And what's left for decent people to believe in 
It's not as simple as to be or not to be 
And what's the point, it's only us that we're deceiving 
And the morning lies heavy on me 

(Chorus) 

The morning lies heavy on me father 
I couldn't find the time to fall asleep 
And I couldn't stop from thinking all the deeper 
'Cause the morning lies heavy on me
