Chorus
GWell she Emslept through the day
EmAnd she slept through the night
And I found her there in the CmornGing
In a Embreath of frost with her Deyes shut Emtight
I found her there in the DmorEmning
I found her there in the CmornGing
[Verse 1]
GWell the Emrushing streams have breached their banks
And the whole wide world is CwakGing
And the Emice is gone down Cinto the Gground
And the Emwhole wide world is DwaitEming
And the Emwhole wide world is CwaiGting
Chorus
GWell she Emslept through the day
EmAnd she slept through the night
And I found her there in the CmornGing
In a Embreath of frost with her Deyes shut Emtight
I found her there in the DmornEming
I found her there in the CmorGning
[Verse 2]
GI Emwalked on the road beneath the stars
I hung my head and CshivGered
I Emwalked on the road Cbeneath the Gstars
Where EmI may be dDelivEmered
Where I may be CdelivGered
[Verse 3]
I Emsat by the edge of the firelight
And the sun crept from the CemGbers
I Emprayed alone in the Cdark of Gnight
That my Emsoul would be rDememEmbered
That my soul would be CremeGmbered 
Chorus
GWell she Emslept through the day
And she slept through the night
And I found her there in the CmornGing
In a Embreath of frost with her Deyes shut Emtight
I found her there in the DmornEming
I found her there in the CmorGning
