In The Morning Light

Words & Music by Songsmith & Buddy’s Whisper
Key: C Major
Style: Gentle ballad, slow 6/8 rhythm

[Verse 1]

C G/B
In the morning light, I still see your face
Am Em
Soft as a whisper, time can't
F C
Pillow still warm, like you never
Dm G
But the silence reminds me — I’m holding my breath

[Verse 2]

C G/B
Coffee cup waits by your favorite chair
Am Em
I reach out to touch you, but you're not there
F C
Memories float like dust in the beams
Dm G
Dancing like ghosts in forgotten

[Chorus]

F G
In the morning light, love feels near
C Am
Like your voice is something I still hear
F G
Though the night may steal my peace
Em Am
In the dawn, your shadow won’t cease
Dm G C
In the morning light... you’re still with me

[Bridge]

Am Em
I don’t ask the sun to turn back time
F G
I just wish your hand was still in mine
Am Em
Every day begins the same old way
F G
Looking for you in the break of day

[Chorus – repeat with more intensity]

F G
In the morning light, love feels near
C Am
Like your voice is something I still hear
F G
Though the night may steal my peace
Em Am
In the dawn, your shadow won’t cease
Dm G C
In the morning light... you’re still with me

[Outro – soft and fading]

Dm G C
Yes, in the morning light... you’re still with me
