------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE MORNING OF OUR LIVES - Jonathan Richman ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: harrytheblurfan This is my all-time favourite Jonathan Richman song that just sums up what he's about. I've struggled to find a tab for this song and the chords are always just A, F#m, C#m, E for the verses. Even if you play barre chords for this it still doesn't sound completely right and that's because Jonathan plays a riff instead of chords for the most part of this song. I'm posting this as an intro because I'm not 100% sure about the chorus but I'll put the chords that he uses according to the brilliant jojochords.com Tuning: STANDARD Intro/Verse: e|-7-7--5-5--9-9--7-9-7--7-7--5-5--9-9--7-9-7--------------------------------| B|-5-5--5-5--9-9--9-9-9--5-5--5-5--9-9--9-9-9--------------------------------| G|-6-6--6-6--9-9--9-9-9--6-6--6-6--9-9--9-9-9--------------------------------| D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| Chorus: D E A And our time is right now, now we can do anything we really want to. D E A Our time is now, here in the morning of our lives. And that's about it really.
