(Vintage Electric Piano – 120 bpm)

               


[Verse 1]

            
  It was an ea

            
rly morning ye


sterday.
         
  I was up bef

            
ore the dawn.
            
  And I really

            
 have     enjo


yed my stay.
         
 But I must be

            
 moving on.


[Bridge 1]

(+Electric Guitar +Bass +Drums)
       
Like a king wi

thout a castle

.
       
Like a queen w

ithout a thron

e.
       
I'm an early m

orning lover.
       
And I  must be

 moving on.

t you say,
         
  Is the undis

            
puted truth.
            
But I have to 

            
have things my


 own way,
         
  To keep me i

            
n my youth.


[Bridge 2]

(+E Guitar +Bass +Organ)
       
Like a ship wi

thout an ancho

r.
       
Like a slave w

ithout a chain

.
       
Just the thoug

ht of those sw

eet ladies,
       
Sends a shiver

 through my ve

ins.

       
   And I will 

go on shining.
       
       Shining

 like brand ne

w.
       
  I'll never l

ook behind me.
       
    My trouble

s will be few.

I have transcribed this song for piano, so sorry if there are any problems with the 
tab if you are playing it on guitar!
