Mikky Ekko - Mourning Doves
Chords by Simon Kelly
No Capo
Standard Tuning
The bridge section of the song has only single notes playing very quietly on the piano, but for guitar, muting
the chords or playing them extremely lightly seems to work ok as filler.

[Intro]
C Cadd2 Dm Dsus2 Am Fmaj7
[Verse 1]
C Cadd2
Look at how far we've come
Dm Dsus2
Look at this mess we've made
Am
I'm still praying that the sun
Fmaj7
tears my body from the shade
C Cadd2
Tell me that we're too far gone
Dm Dsus2
Tell me that we'll be okay
Am
Swear to God I'd leave right now
Fmaj7
If Heaven wasn't so far away
[Pre Chorus 1]
C Cadd2
But this is not an exercise
Dm Dsus2
And nobody gets out alive
Am Fmaj7
Stop. What if I, what if I stop?
[Chorus 1]
C
Mourning doves, meet me in the morning
Dm Am
Love, what if I, what if I die before you wake?
Fmaj7
Promise, I promise you can lean on me, lean on me
C
I can be your shoulder
Dm
There's still room for us to pull over
Am
But we can't stop, I swear to morning, Love
Fmaj7
We can be together like mourning doves
[Verse 2]
C
Yeah, realize that no escape
E
Releases you from your mistakes
Am
Oh, this is not a warning, but innocence is calling
Fmaj7
And I sense that's it's a falling embrace
[Pre Chorus 2]
C Cadd2
But this is not an exercise
Dm Dsus2
And nobody gets out alive
Am Fmaj7
Stop. What if I, what if I stop?
[Chorus 2]
C
Mourning doves, meet me in the morning
Dm Am
Love, what if I, what if I die before you wake?
Fmaj7
Promise, I promise you can lean on me, lean on me
C
I can be your shoulder
Dm
There's still room for us to pull over
Am
But we can't stop, I swear to morning, Love
Fmaj7 C Cadd2
We can be together like mourning doves
Dm Dsus2 Am
We can be together like mourning doves
[Bridge]
C Fmaj7
Because we both know
Am
We're running out of time
Am
We're running out of time
Am Fmaj7 C
Listen, listen, listen, listen
[Chorus]
C
Mourning doves, meet me in the morning
Dm Am
Love, what if I, what if I die before you wake?
Fmaj7
Promise, I promise you can lean on me, lean on me
C
I can be your shoulder
Dm
There's still room for us to pull over
Am
But we can't stop, I swear to morning, Love
Fmaj7 C Cadd2
We can be together like mourning doves
Dm Dsus2 Am Fmaj7
We can be together like mourning doves
C Cadd2
Mourning doves
Dm Am Fmaj7
We can be together like mourning doves
