I looked out this morning and the sun was gone,
Turned on some music to start my day,
Then lost myself in a familiar song.
I closed my eyes and I

Notes:
For the chorus bar chords sound nice on an acoustic, power chords sound
better on electrics.
The chord changes for the solo are as follows:
/D G /A G /D G /D A /D G /Bm A /D Bm /Em A /G / D F# D/
with / / representing 1 measure.

Additional Notes by Oliver K. Reichl:
There are at least five "guitars" in this tune. The electric is
definitely some sort of Les Paul (of vintage stock with Scholzian
modifications, no doubt).
Guitar #1: 12-string acoustic
Guitar #2: 6-string electric (rhythm, power chords)
Guitar #3: 6-string electric (leads-melody)
Guitar #4: 6-string electric (leads-harmony)
Guitar #5: bass guitar
