Woke up this morning
I was thinking about it
I was thinking about a life
Yeah the one that we're livin'
And the one that we're given
And the things that turn out right

Like the stars above me
And the sun that's shining
I don't always understand
But with you beside me
And the love to guide me
I guess I'll make my stand

It's a beautiful world
So hold me tight
I had to fight
Every day of my life
It's a beautiful world

Take it for granted
That I'm off to the ocean
Floating around the sea
So much before me
And there's so much behind me
In this world of mystery

(Chorus)

Many a man has been broken
Feeling what I feel for you
Many a promise been spoken
Over youuu...over youuuu...
Over youuu...over youuuu...

Woke up this morning
I was thinking about it
I was thinking about the life
Yeah the one that we're livin'
And the one that we're given
And the things that turn out right

(Chorus)

So hold me tight
I had to fight every day of my life
It's a beautiful world

This Gainesville Florida band used to be called The Epics. Then someone in the band suggested the new name Mudcrutch. Tom says it wasn’t him; band mates say it was. It fell apart after moving to California. From its ashes Tom Petty built The Heartbreakers. Later in life, though, Tom got the band back together and they recorded two albums. Some of Tom’s best songs (“Hungry No More”, “I Forgive It All”, “Crystal River”) are on these records.
