G6/A Dm Am C4
I went down among the dust and pollen
Em/G D/A Am G G6/A
To the old stone fountain in the morning after dawn
Dm Am C4 Em/G D/A Am
Underneath were all these pennies fallen from the hands of children
G G6/A
They were there and then were gone
G6/A Dm Am C4 Em/G D/A Am
And I wonder what became of them
G G6/A
What became of them
D/A Am G F
Sunlight over me no matter what I do
A E D
Apples in the summer are golden sweet
A E D G6/A
Everyday a passing complete
G6/A Dm Am C4 Em/G

G6/A Dm Am C4
I'm not one to ever pray for mercy
Em/G D/A Am G G6/A
Or to wish on pennies in the fountain or the shrine
G6/A Dm Am C4
But that day you know I left my money
Em/G D/A Am G G6/A
And I thought of you only all that copper glowing fine
G6/A Dm Am C4 Em/G D/A Am
And I wonder what became of you
G G6/A
What became of you
D/A Am G F
Sunlight over me no matter what I do

All diffuse like skin abuse the sun is half its size

When you talk you hardly even look in my eyes

In the morning, in the morning

In the doorway holding every letter that I wrote
C F C F C F C
In the driveway pulling away putting on your coat
G Am Em
In the ocean washing off my name from your throat

In the morning, in the morning

In the ocean washing off my name from your throat

In the tide, look me in the eye, to never let you stay,

In the night time, with the light on, every light all day,
G Am Em
In the ocean, leaving me no time to obey,
F Am
In the morning, in the morning,
G Am Em
In the ocean, washing off my name from your throat,
F A
In the morning, in the morning.

saxophone part
FM7 E
(repeat till end of song)
tabbed from several videos of live performances
(kcrw, haldern pop, austin city limits 2011, seattle WA 2011) and the album version
i used some parts of willieadlerwb's tab
i added the third verse of the second part - that is not included on the album version
but they usually play on stage
