[Intro]
Em C D
[Verse 1]
D
I woke up this morning
Em
I could barely breathe
D
Just an empty impression
Em
In the bed where you used to be
D
I want a kiss from your lips
Em
I want an eye for an eye
D
I woke up this morning to an empty sky
[Chorus]
Em C
Empty sky, empty sky
D
I woke up this morning to an empty sky
Em C
Empty sky, empty sky
D
I woke up this morning to an empty sky
[Verse 2]
D
Blood on the streets
Em
Blood flowin' down
D
I hear the blood of my blood
Cryin' from the ground
[Chorus]
Em C
Empty sky, empty sky
D
I woke up this morning to an empty sky
Em C
Empty sky, empty sky
D
I woke up this morning to an empty sky
[Harp Solo]
C Em D
[Verse 3]
D
On the plains of Jordan
Em
I cut my bow from the wood
D
Of this tree of evil
Of this tree of good
I want a kiss from your lips
Em
I want an eye for an eye
D
I woke up this morning to the empty sky
[Chorus]
Em C
Empty sky, empty sky
D
I woke up this morning to an empty sky
Em C
Empty sky, empty sky
D
I woke up this morning to an empty sky
C Em
Empty sky, empty sky
D
I woke up this morning to an empty sky
[Harp Solo]
C Em D
(repeat to end)
