 Ear-transcribed on ukulele by Neil Killer.
I  woke up early in the morning  and you weren't there
I  woke up early in the morning  and I could  have been anywhere
But  I know exactly  where I am
Somewhere  between  making love  and being friends
I  tried to call you in the evening  but you didn't pick  up
Something  about being busy,  hustling just trying  to make a buck
But  I know that's just  the way you are
Just  trying to forget,  but this ain't  no ordinary  love
When  your love  is safe
I'll  be giving  it all away
When  your hope  is gone
I'll  be up  till dawn
Something  that I want to tell  you that I'll never say
Sorry  that I ever told  you all those things I didn't mean  inside my head
But  you know that's just  the way I am
Just  trying to forget  but this ain't  no ordinary  love
When  your love  is safe
I'll  be giving  it all away
When  your hope  is gone
I'll  be up  till dawn
When  your love,  your love,
 your love,  giving it all away
When  your love,  your love,
 your love,  giving it all away
