	 	  E                           C#m               B
 	 In the morning I'm light, but in the evening I'm heavy now

       		     E                    C#m           B
 	 Try as I might, I just can't keep it steady now

	        B      C#m          
	    oooooooo, oh my love

		   E                         Abm
 	 ooooh ooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhohohohohohoooooooooooooo
