Intro: E  G A (2X)  
E                                                        G      A  
I’ve been out here praying for sunshine, all I see is pouring rain  
E                                                             G   A  
I’ve been out here praying for good times, and all I get is more pain  
E                                                      G         A  
There’s a monkey on my back  I’ve got some habits that I can’t break  
E                                                             G      A          E  
So I’m out here standing in the sunrise, with a case of the early morning shakes  

E  
Ah  ah ha           
            G      A       E  
Yeah, the Early Morning Shakes             
E           G-A    E  
Ah  ah ha   

E                                                         G         A  
This bus is headed to hell now, at least that’s what the old folks say  
E                                                  G    A  
You only get a little while to shine, be-fore you fade away  
E                                       G      A  
Out here on the highway  it’s more than I can take  
E                                                           G      A           E  
Just giving everything I got ‘til there’s nothing but the early morning shakes  

E  
Ah  ah ha   
G        A      E  
Early Morning Shakes          
E           G-A    E  
Ah  ah ha   

Bridge:  
A G              E  
I  wanna break away  
A                                                                               B   
And just be myself sometime, and get back all those things I lost along the way  
                                                  
To the early morning shakes  

Break:  
E  G-A   E  G-A   E  G-A   E  G-A  

E                                     G        A  
Jack Daniels in her coffee, ice water in her veins  
E                                                      G    A  
Bleach blond hair with a rose tattoo, Maybelline and White Rain  
E                                                      G     A  
I took her back to the woods  listening to “When the Levee Breaks”  
E                                                       G      A      E  
I reached over and took her hand, then I gave her the early morning shakes  

E  
Ah  ah ha   
            G      A      E  
Yeah, the early morning shakes          
E           G-A    E  
Ah  ah ha   
         G      A      E  
To the early morning shakes  
E           G-A    E  
Ah  ah ha   
            G      A      E  
Yeah, the early morning shakes
