When The Morning Comes

the classic opener to abandoned luncheonette . both hall and oates are playing acoustic guitars . this is my approximation of how to play it on one guitar . first , there’s a fill that is played occasionally between verses ( and in the Intro ) . here’s how i play it : E | - - - - - - 7 - - - - - - - 5 - - - - - - - 3 - - - - - - - | B | - - - - - - 8 - - - - - - - 7 - - - - - - - 3 - - - - - - - | G | - - - - - - 7 - - - - - - - 7 - - - - - - - 4 - - - - - - - | D | - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 5 - - - - - - - | A | - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 5 - - - - - - - | E | - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 3 - - - - - - - | Intro : G D C G G2 D2 C2 ( fill ) G i went downtown to see milady D she stood me up and i stood there waiting C G but it’ll be all right when the morning comes G now i’m up in the air with the rain in my hair D i’ve got nowhere to go , i can go anywhere C ( fill ) and it’ll be all right when the morning comes Am7 Bm7 just in passing , i’m not asking that you be anyone but you Am7 when you come home try to come home alone C D it’s so much better with two now i’m out in the cold and i’m getting old standing here waiting on you but it’ll be all right when the morning comes the rest of the song is played using these chords . notes : G2 ( 7 ( 10 ) 9787 ) D2 ( 557775 ) C2 ( 335553 )
