[G]Early morning [D]riser.
C G D C C* - G
I can still feel all your sunlight shine before the dawn.
First light morning feelingsâ?[D]¦ got me losing so muc[C]h sleep.
I just can't [G]say how much I [D]miss you when you're[G] gone.
Chorus 1 (s)=single strum
Cause I [C(s)]get a feeling something like a [G]summer wind.
[G/F#]When you[Em(s)] love me like a sister, then you'r[C(s)]e gon[G]e again.
But there's [D]so much light shining in your eyes,
that you [Cadd9(s)]just can't help but keep a love alive. [G9]
Verse 2
Now I hear some otherâ?¦ loving sunshine brothers'
left you crying and you're all alone.
So dry your eyes and try and say your goodbyes.
Cause you're old enough to get back on your feet all on your own.
Chorus 2
Don't you kind of get a feeling like a summer wind.
Cause he loved you like a brother, now he's gone again.
But there's still a lot of love light in your eyes,
and you sure know how to keep a man alive.

Soâ?¦ early morning riser.
There's not much more I can do to try and make things right.
If you need anotherâ?¦ sunshine brother,
I can be right there beside you by the early morning light.

And I'll forget that feeling like a summer wind.
And I'll probably start to think about you now and then.

and you still know how to keep a love alive.
