[Verse 1]
D D D D
I woke up, it was a Chelsea morning and the first thing that I heard
G D Em D
was a song outside my window, the traffic wrote the words.
G D
It came ringing up like Christmas bells,
Em A A A A*
rapping up like pipes and drums.
[Chorus 1]
D7 D7
Oh, won't you stay, we'll put on the day
G** D/F#** Em** D** G** D/F#** Em** D**
and we'll wear it 'till the night comes.
[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
D D D D
I woke up, it was a Chelsea morning and the first thing that I saw
G D Em D
was the sun through yellow curtains and a rainbow on my wall.
G D
Blue, red, green and gold to welcome you,
Em A A A A*
Crimson crystal beads to beckon.
[Chorus 2]
D7 D7
Oh, won't you stay, we'll put on the day,
G** D/F#** Em** D** G** D/F#** Em** D**
there's a sun show every second.

[Bridge]
G D Em D
Now, the curtain opens on a portrait of today
G D Em D
and the streets are paved with passersby, pigeons fly
G A A
and papers lie, waiting to blow away.

C/D C/D C/D C/DD
I woke up, it was a Chelsea morning and the first thing that I knew:
G D Em D
there was milk and toast and honey and a bowl of orange juice too.
G D
And the light poured in like butterscotch
Em A A A
stuck to all my senses.
[Chorus 3]
A* D7 D7
Oh, won't you stay we'll put on the day
G** D/F#** Em** D**
and we'll talk in present tenses.
[Interlude]

[Ending]
G D A D
When the contain closes and the rainbow runs away
G D Em D
I will bring you incense owls by night by jewel light, by candlelight,
G A A A
if only you will stay.
C/D C/D C/D
Oh, my darling won't you wake up, it is a Chelsea morning.
