Chorus: E One of these cold lonesome mornings, you're going to kill me E I'm going to lay there and I'm going to die You will soon give me pain enough to fill me Because I'm gone past doing any good to cry A E And the warm sunshine is like a stranger A E There's a cruel violation with the dawn A E Lord, my pain can't stand illumination E And one of these cold lonesome B E mornings I'll be gone Chorus: E One of these cold lonesome mornings, dark and early Before a wild bird sings I'm going to fly While it's still dark and I'm still reaching for you I'll wake up and I can't cry But I know my heart can't stand another tremor Now it's holding together I don't know But just before the dawning's first glimmer Chorus - x2 You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  E  B  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
