Joni Mitchell
Chelsea Morning
[Intro]
One, two
One, two, three, four

[Verse 1]
Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning
And the first thing that I heard
Was the song outside my window
And the traffic wrote the words
It came ringing up like Christmas bells
And rapping up like pipes and drums

[Chorus]
Won't you stay? We'll put on the day
And we'll wear it 'til the night comes

[Verse 2]
Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning
And the first thing that I saw
Was the sun through yellow curtains
And a rainbow on the wall
Red, green and gold to welcome you
And crimson crystal beads to beckon

[Chorus]
Won't you stay? We'll put on the day
There's a sun shower every second
[Instrumental Bridge]

[Verse 3]
Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning
And the first thing that I knew
There was milk and toast and honey
And a bowl of oranges, too
And the light poured in like butterscotch
And stuck to all my senses

[Outro]
Won't you stay? We'll put on the day
And we'll talk in present tenses
