The Morning After Baby Let Me Down
Mel Tillis


Capo 1 (Recorded in G#)

Intro: G-D-G-D

     G
The alarm clock woke my sleepin' but I lay there for a minute
         C                             G
With a million cobwebs clingin' to my brain

I stopped the bell from ringin' in the times it takes a heartbeat
         A                              D
Then I settled back and closed my eyes again

    G
I reached out for my baby for some early morning loving
           C                                        G
Then the terrible truth came staggering through my head
            C                               G               C
There was nothing but the fragrance of her perfume on the pillow
      G             D              G
Baby wasn't there beside me in the bed
G C G It's the mornin' after baby let me down D It's the daybreak and a heartbreak that I found G C Only silence to torment me, no soft hands to touch me gently G D G D-G-D It's the mornin' after baby let me down G There was nothing to hold on to except the sheets that fell around me C G And I started into tremblin' like a leaf How could that woman leave me she was more than just a lover A D She was every bit a lady warm and sweet G I can taste the salty teardrops and it's gettin' hard to swallow C G I hope a glass of bourbon can take the pain away C G C I got no appetite for eatin' just a sick and empty feelin' G D G What a good for nothing way to start the day G C G It's the mornin' after baby let me down D It's the daybreak and a heartbreak that I found G C Only silence to torment me, no soft hands to touch me gently G D G It's the mornin' after baby let me down G C G It's the mornin' after baby let me down D It's the daybreak and a heartbreak that I found
