 (same chords as verse 1 with guitar two playing some 
 other stuff that I can't quite figure out... anyone?)
 
 i'm writing desperate songs
 		riff d
 while you're fast asleep inside
 i could try to sing until it rings
 but my voice comes out uptight

 you don't relax
 no you cannot clear your mind
 
 the morning sad
 you know the morning sad
 the morning sad
 never had it so bad
 never had it so bad

 and you've seen through everything i've got
 
 (more distorted)
         F#                 A

 you won't attack 
 cause you're much too weak to fight

 you know the morning sad
 the morning sad
