1.      I woke up this morning, I could barely breathe,

                                 D                                                       Em

    just an empty impression in the bed there you used to be.

                                          D                                     Em

    I want a kiss from your lips, I want an eye for an eye,

                              D                                  

    I woke up this morning to an empty sky.

 

             Em               C                            D

Empty sky, empty sky, I woke up this morning to an empty sky.

             Em               C                            D

Empty sky, empty sky, I woke up this morning to an empty sky.

2. Blood on the streets, yeah, blood flowin' down,

                                   D                                  

    I hear the blood of my blood, cryin' from the ground.

 

             Em               C                            D

Empty sky, empty sky, I woke up this morning to the empty sky.

             Em               C                            D

Empty sky, empty sky, I woke up this morning to the empty sky.

3.                   On the plains of Jordan I cut my bow from the wood,

                          D                           

    of this tree of evil, of this tree of good.

                                         D                                      Em

    I want a kiss from your lips, I want an eye for an eye,

                              D                                 

    I woke up this morning to the empty sky.

 

             Em                C                           D

Empty sky, empty sky, I woke up this morning to an empty sky.

             Em               C                            D

Empty sky, empty sky, I woke up this morning to the empty sky.

             Em               C                           D                                   - Em - C - D

Empty sky, empty sky, I woke up this morning to an empty sky.
