Strum
D-DU-UDU
 It's early  in the morning
 About a  quarter till three
 I'm sittin'  here talkin' with my baby
 Over cigarettes  and coffee, now
 And to tell  you that
 Darling  I've been so satisfied
 Honey since I met you
 Baby since  I met you, ooh
All  the places that I've been around
 And all  the good looking girls I've met
They  just don't seem to fit in
 Knowing this  particularly sad, yeah
 But it  seemed so natural, darling
 That you  and I are here
Just  talking over cigarettes and drinking  coffee, ooh now
 And  whole my heart  cries out
Love  at last I've found  you, ooh now
And  honey won't you let me
 Just be my whole life  around you
 And while  I complete,  I complete my whole  life would be, yeah
 If you would take things under consideration
 And walk down this hour  with me
 And I would love it, yeah
 People I say it's  so early in the morning
 Ooh,  it's a quarter till three
We're  sittin' here talkin'
 Over cigarettes  and drinking coffee, now, lord
And  I'll like to show you, well
 I've known nothing  but good old joy
 Since I met you, darling
 Honey since I've  met you, baby yeah
 I would love to have  another drink of coffee, now
   etc..................
 And please, darling, help me smoke this one more cigarette, now
 I don't want no cream and sugar
 'cause I've got you, now darling
 But just let me enjoy
 Help me to enjoy
 This good time that we'll have, baby
 It's so early, so early in the morning
 So early, so early in the morning
 And I've got you
 And you've got me
 And we'll have each other
 And we don't, we don't want nothing but joy, y'all
 Nothing but joy...
