I woke up this Emorning,
I could barely F#mbreathe
Just an empty imEpression,
in the bed where you used to F#mbe
I want a kiss from your Elips,

I woke up this Emorning, to an empty sky 
Empty F#msky, empty Dsky,
I woke up this Emorning to an empty sky
Empty F#msky, empty Dsky,
I woke up this Emorning, to an empty sky
Blood on the Estreets,
yeh, blood flowing F#mdown
I hear the blood of my Eblood,
crying from the ground
Empty F#msky, empty Dsky,
I woke up this Emorning, to the empty sky
Empty F#msky, empty Dsky,
I woke up this Emorning, to the empty sky
D F#m E
On the plains of EJordan,
I cut my bow from the F#mwood
Of this tree of Eevil,
of this tree of good
I want a kiss from your lips,
I want an eye for an F#meye
I woke up this Emorning, to the empty sky
Empty F#msky, empty Dsky,
I woke up this Emorning, to an empty sky
Empty F#msky, empty Dsky,
I woke up this Emorning, to the empty sky
Empty F#msky, empty Dsky,
I woke up this Emorning, to an empty sky
