I know the sun's about to come up	D A
I close my eyes anyway	Em G
my mouth is dry and the sheets are cold	D A
and will be still come break of day	Em G

you called me up just to surprise me	D A
to hear my voice, see what I'd say	Em G
I only whispered, and then hung up	D A
whispered, wait til break of day	Em G

at break of day I'm ending all of it	D Em
and so don't say you've had a ball	F#m G
dawn is mine but I will share it	Em
with whatever bird will wear it	F#m
on her body bare and pink	G
now what do you think of break of day	A

I locked my door, I should unlock it	D A
what if you should come this way	Em G
and in and have a drink and dancing	D A
dancing till the break of day	Em G

and then to bed we'd dance towards	D A
and tiredly kiss and roll in hay	Em G
but waking in the evening I see	D A
you left after break of day	Em G

at break of day I'm ending all of it	D Em
and so don't say you've had a ball	F#m G
dawn is mine, but I will share it	Em
with whatever bird will wear it	F#m
on her body bare and pink	G
now what do you think of break of day	A

at break of day I'm ending all of it
and so don't say you've had a ball
dawn is mine, but I will share it
with whatever bird will wear it
on her body bare and pink
now what do you think of break of day

I hate myself when I'm alone
it's just with you I feel okay
and so tomorrow you'll fell sorrow
when I am gone at break of day
