B E A B

[Verse 1]
 B
I open up my door to greet the early morning sun
 E                         A        F#
Closing it behind me and away I do run
        B                E               B             E
To the meadow, where the meadow lark is singing in the tree
       B           A              E            B
In the meadow I go walking in the early morning breeze


[Verse 2]
  B
I cup my hands to catch a multi-colored butterfly
  E                         A               F#
Perched upon the petals of flowers growing wild
 B            E              B               E
Freeing it, I watch it as it flies away from me
     B             A              E             B
To visit with the flowers in the early morning breeze


[Chorus]
F#                                  E             B
Rainbow colored flowers kissed with early morning sun
F#                           E    B
The aster and the dahlia and wild geraniums
B                                 E           B
Drops of morning dew still linger on the iris leaves
B                        A              E             B
In the meadow where I'm walking in the early morning breeze


[Verse 3]
  B
Misty-eyed I look about the meadow where I stray
           E                         A                F#
For it's there I find the courage to greet the coming day
    B               E                 B          E
For there among the flowers, I kneel gently to my knees
   B                A           E            B
To have a word with God in the early morning breeze


[Chorus]
  F#                                  E             B
A rainbow colored meadow kissed with early morning sun
F#                           E     B
The aster and the dahlia and wild geraniums
B                                 E           B
Drops of morning dew still linger on the Iris leaves
B                       A               E            B
In the meadow where I'm walking in the early morning breeze
