Butch Walker
Early in the Morning
[Verse 1]
Well I, I feel done wrong
Ain't been myself in far too long
I can't blame nobody, what I done wrong
Just blame myself and all is lost
From now on I will

[Chorus]
I'm gonna wake up early in the morning
I'm blind but I'll raise my eyes to a new day dawning
Gonna raise my head when the sun comes up
And I won't lay down 'til the work's done
I'm gonna wake up early in the morning
I'm wise but there's still so much that I ain't been learning
Gonna raise my voice 'til I am heard
'Til the world rings out with my dying words, oh
I'm gonna wake up early in the morning

[Verse 2]
Don't wait, wait too long
Don't hide your feelings 'til the feeling's gone
'Cause when you suffer, pain makes you strong
And when you lose, you own that loss
From now on I know

[Chorus]
That I'm gonna wake up early in the morning
I'm blind but I'll raise my eyes to a new day dawning
Gonna raise my head when the sun comes up
And I won't lay down 'til the work's done
I'm gonna wake up early in the morning
I'm wise but there's still so much that I ain't been learning
Gonna raise my voice 'til I am heard
'Til the world rings out with my dying words, oh
I'm gonna wake up early in the morning
I am, I'm gonna wake up early in the morning
[Bridge]
And in the warmer light of day
I will resurrect my faith
And I'll scream out loud while demons that I chase
Strike me down without a warning
But I will win this morning

[Chorus]
I'm gonna wake up early in the morning
I'm blind but I'll raise my eyes to a new day dawning
Gonna raise my head when the sun comes up
And I won't lay down 'til the work's done
I'm gonna wake up early in the morning
I'm wise but there's still so much that I ain't been learning
Gonna raise my voice 'til I am heard
'Til the world rings out with my dying words
And I'm gonna wake up early in the morning
I am, I'm gonna wake up early in the morning
