Up Before Dawn
Key: D Major
Tempo: Steady, Folk Ballad
[Verse 1]
D A G D
Up before dawn, while the world’s asleep,
D A G D
With a heart full of dreams and roots running deep.
Bm A G D
I lace up my boots, face the quiet morn,
Em A D
Chasing that light where new hopes are born.
[Chorus]
D A G D
Oh, up before dawn, while the sky’s still dark and gray,
D A G D
I’m bound to my journey, won’t let it slip away.
Bm A G D
Step by step, I move along, through the misty dew,
Em A D
Up before dawn, chasing dreams anew.
[Verse 2]
D A G D
The road is long, and the nights are cold,
D A G D
But there’s fire in my soul, a spirit bold.
Bm A G D
With the stars as my guide and the earth as my song,
Em A D
I carry my dreams as I walk along.
[Chorus]
D A G D
Oh, up before dawn, while the sky’s still dark and gray,
D A G D
I’m bound to my journey, won’t let it slip away.
Bm A G D
Step by step, I move along, through the misty dew,
Em A D
Up before dawn, chasing dreams anew.
[Bridge]
G D A D
There’s a peace in the silence, a promise in the air,
G D A
I find strength in the quiet, hope everywhere.
Em A G D
The world’s still sleeping, but I’m alive and free,
Em A D
With the dawn rising up inside of me.
[Chorus]
D A G D
Oh, up before dawn, while the sky’s still dark and gray,
D A G D
I’m bound to my journey, won’t let it slip away.
Bm A G D
Step by step, I move along, through the misty dew,
Em A D
Up before dawn, chasing dreams anew.
[Outro]
D A G D
When the sun finally rises, and the day is born,
Em A D
I’ll be a little bit closer, up before dawn.
