[Verse 1]
[C]Every [Dm]time [C]I w[Dm]alk [C]down[Dm]
[G]Sunset [C]early [Dm]in the morning
[C]I get to t[Am]hinking when I[Dm] walk
the whole night [G]through
And it's [C]then I turn my [Dm]eyes
toward the [C]heavens and thank
[Dm]God
[G]For that [C]morning I [Am]awakened
[Dm]on a pillow ne[F]xt[Dm] to you
[C]But I had[F] to [Dm]leave[G] for
[C]Philadelphia
Why that [F]was, [Dm]I'll never[G],
[C]know I do be[F]lieve
[Dm]Phil[G]adelphia
[C]Is [G]as [Am]far [G]away from hell a[Am]s
