GWell it's a CBloody Mary morning
Baby left me without warning sometime D7in the night                       
So I'm flying down to Houston
Forgetting her the nature of my Gflight      
As we taxi down the runway the smog 
And haze reminding me of D7how I feel
Just a country boy who's learning 
That the pitfalls of the city are extremely Greal
All the night life and the parties temptation 
And deceit the order D7of the day        
And it's a Bloody Mary morning 
Cause I'm leaving baby somewhere in GLA
GWell it's a CBloody Mary morning
Baby left me without warning sometime D7in the night                       
So I'm flying down to Houston 
Forgetting her the nature of my Gflight
Our golden jet is airborne 
Flight fifty cuts a path across the D7morning sky
And a voice comes on the speaker
Reassuring us flight fifty is the way to Gfly
A hostess takes our order coffee tea 
Or something stronger to start D7off the day
And it's a Bloody Mary morning 
Cause I'm leaving baby somewhere in GLA
GWell it's a CBloody Mary morning
Baby left me without warning sometime D7in the night
So I'm flying down to Houston 
Forgetting her the nature of my Gflight

The story behind the song

"Bloody Mary Morning" was inspired by Willie Nelson's personal struggles to be a better parent. When it later appeared on the concept album Phases and Stages, the song's meaning shifted to tell the story of a man whose wife has left him. It captures the feeling of waking up to a difficult new reality, facing the day after a night of turmoil or regret. Playing it can evoke that raw, early-morning introspection.

G C

Well it's a Bloody Mary morning

Baby left me without warning sometime in the night

So I'm flying down to Houston

Forgetting her the nature of my flight

As we taxi down the runway the smog

And haze reminding me of how I feel

Just a country boy who's learning

That the pitfalls of the city are extremely real

All the night life and the parties temptation

And deceit the order of the day

And it's a Bloody Mary morning

Cause I'm leaving baby somewhere in LA

G C

Well it's a Bloody Mary morning

Baby left me without warning sometime in the night

So I'm flying down to Houston

Forgetting her the nature of my flight

Our golden jet is airborne

Flight fifty cuts a path across the morning sky

And a voice comes on the speaker

Reassuring us flight fifty is the way to fly

A hostess takes our order coffee tea

Or something stronger to start off the day

And it's a Bloody Mary morning

Cause I'm leaving baby somewhere in LA

G C

Well it's a Bloody Mary morning

Baby left me without warning sometime in the night

So I'm flying down to Houston

Forgetting her the nature of my flight
