Mountain Goats - Woke Up New

C#..............................F#....................C#...................F#
On the morning when I woke up without you for the first time

........C#.................G#...................C#
I felt free and I felt lonely and I felt scared

C#..................F#.................Bbm................F#
And I began to talk to myself almost immediately

..............C#........G#............F#............C#
Not being used to being the only person there

The first time I made coffee for just myself, I made too much of it
But I drank it all just cause you hate it when I let things go to waste
And I wandered through the house like a little boy lost in the fall
And an astronaut could've seen the hunger in my eyes from space


C#
And I sang

C#................G#..................F#................C#
Oh, What do I do? What do I do? What do I do?

C#..........G#..............C#
What do I do without you?

On the morning when I woke up without you for the first time
I was cold so I put on a sweater and I turned up the heat
And the walls began to close in and I felt so sad and freightened
I practically ran from the living room and into the street

And the wind began to blow and the trees began to pant
And the world in its cold way started coming alive
And I stood there like a buisness man waiting for the train
And I got ready for the future to arrive

And I sang
Oh, What do I do? What do I do? What do I do?
What do I do without you?
