Verse: 
                       C Bm Am G 
I woke up this morning 
         G   Am Bm  C 
With a smile on my face 
    C   Bm   Am     G 
I threw out those stones 
       G   Am Bm  C 
That stood in my way 
       C  Bm Am G 
And I put on a new pair 
    G    Am Bm    C 
Of hard walking shoes 
   C   Bm  Am   G 
I woke up this morning 
 G   Am   Bm   F 
Laughing the blues 
           F   Em  Dm    C 
I woke up laughing the blues

And if the darkness brings the thunder

My brother turns me a-way 
        G 
I will turn and love another 
                F   Em Dm    C 
There will be light in the shade 
                       G 
And that?s where I?ll lay 
          F 
It might take a while
