Morning Time chords

[Verse]
C                                        G     C
You in the morning time reminds me of a summertime
C                                               G       C
And anytime that ain't right now seems to be a waste of time
C                                                                   G       C
Way the grass fills hills of the holler and the sun gives in to the crescent moon
C                                             G    C
Way I'm giving in tomorrow making love in the afternoon
 
[Chorus]
         Am  G    C        C    G    Am
When you go down hard, you come up swingin
    Am     G    C          C       G      Am
I fucking hate love but I love you in the evening
    Am     G       C       C  G      Am
I swore you'd be here when I finally woke
    Am     G      C               C       G        Am
I love you in the evenings but I fucking hate high hopes
 
[Verse 2]
C                                        G      C
You in the morning time reminds me of a simpler time
C                                                           G       C
Cuttin' grass for cash and gasoline to prove I'm worth your touchin time

C                                                G       C
Way a woman's hands are warfare to a wise man's worn out ways
C                                                      G        C
Way I figured I was worthless when I lost a love that should've stayed
 
[Chorus]
         Am  G    C        C    G    Am
When you go down hard, you come up swingin
    Am     G    C          C       G      Am
I fucking hate love but I love you in the evening
    Am     G       C       C  G      Am
I swore you'd be here when I finally woke
    Am     G      C               C       G        Am
I love you in the evenings but I fucking hate high hopes
 
[Verse 3]
C                                             G      C
You in the morning time reminds me that each day is mine
C                                                       G       C
To be grateful for the rising sun, sneakin' through the window blind
C                                                      G       C
Way you tell me its alright the past is past and right now's arived
C*                                        G*    C*
You in the morning time makes me glad I'm still alive




Chord Progression and Verse Structure:
The song opens and revolves around a simple yet profound chord progression
of C and G, providing a warm and introspective ambiance. The verses use this
progression to paint vivid imagery and evoke a sense of longing and reflection.
The repetitive nature of the C to G transition underlines the thematic continuity
of the song—remembrance and the passage of time.

Chorus Dynamics:
The chorus introduces a slightly more complex progression with the addition of
the Am chord, alongside the foundational C and G. This change adds an emotional
layer to the song, enhancing the lyrical content's intensity. The lyrics "I fucking
hate love but I love you in the evening" are delivered over this progression,
amplifying the mixed emotions of love, hate, and longing.

Emotional Expression Through Chords:

C Chord: Represents the foundation, a sense of stability and reflection on the past.
G Chord: Offers a contrast, pushing the narrative forward and symbolizing moments
of realization and change.
Am Chord: Adds depth, emphasizing the song's emotional complexity
and the conflicting feelings it explores.

Playing Technique Tips:
- Strumming Pattern: Opt for a strumming pattern that complements
the song's reflective tone. A gentle, rhythmic down-up pattern can effectively
convey the emotional weight of the lyrics while maintaining the song's overall
soothing quality.
- Dynamics: Pay close attention to the song's emotional highs and lows, adjusting
your playing dynamics accordingly. The chorus, with its emotionally charged lyrics,
may benefit from a slight increase in intensity without overwhelming the song's
gentle nature.
- Emotional Delivery: The key to effectively conveying this song lies in
the emotional delivery. Allow the chord transitions and your strumming to
reflect the nuances of the lyrics, creating a cohesive
and emotionally resonant performance.
