Alan Hull - Breakfast
[Verse 1]
N.C.                                             C  G  
In the morning you rise, night is still in your eyes
Moving warm with contenDt, the memory Cof your Gbody's Dscent
I watched your striptease in reCverse, dip my hand in your Gpurse
Smiling softly you Dsay, that I Ccould not Gget much Dworse
[Verse 2]
Then, E7scream at the raising Gsteam
ReDminding you and me, we need a cup of Btea
Intimate breakfast E7scene, with sausage, egg and Gbeans
Weetabix, Djam, lightly grilled brown Bham
[Verse 3]
N.C.                                          C  G  
Talking gently and low, I ask you why you must go
Having asked it I Dknow, instead of 'CYes', Gyou'll answer 'DNo'
[Verse 4]
Oh E7no, got to go back Ghome
My child is all aDlone, don't ring me on the Bphone
My husband will be E7there, it really isn't Gfair
He still believes in Dtrust, I've got to catch my Bbus
[Verse 5]
N.C.                                                  C  G  
Looking through the window pane, watch her leaving me again
Wondering what's in her Dhead, I slowly Csink Gback to Dbed
And I Cfeel so Amempty that I Fmust be  -  Gdead________
[Outro]
