BbWoke up on the wrong side of the bed,
BbThe wrong side of the room,
The wrong Gmside of the world.Cm  Bb  
BbCan't put my finger on the mood.
BbIt's not melancholy, anger or the bluesGm.Eb  Bb  
And I Dmlove my husband, my Bbhouse, my job.
Couldn't be any Gmbetter,
And really Cmwhat else is there?Bb  
Then I Dmrealize I'm Bbforgetting God,
BbAnd that's the root of all my misery.
Lord, Gmfirst of all, Fhow is it between you and Ebme?
[Chorus]
EbLord, How is it between Dmus?

When did I talk Gmto you last,
And Ebwhat has happened?Dm  Bb

BbWhen I wake up I am on Gmmy way,
Reinventing Bbthe wheel and Gmsaving the day.Bb  F  
FI have learned this lesson a thousand times,
BbI am the branch, and you are the vine,   Eb  CmOh, HoBb  
BbApart from you we are mice and men,
BbWith our fancy dreams of grandeur and Ebno way to get thereBb.
Oh I can think about you Gmnow and then,
Or I can make a Bbmark on eternity.
Lord Ebfirst of all, Cmhow is it, Bbbetween you and me?

Let the Ebmountains crumble, and Cmfall into the Bbsea.
There's something Fmore Gmimportant weighing on my Bbmind.
