Early Mornin' Rain
(Gordon Lightfoot)

(starts on G)
CDmG7
In the early mornin' rain, with a dollar
CDmG7
in my hand. With an achin' in my heart and
C
my pockets full of sand. I'm a long way from
DmG7C
home and I miss my loved one so. In the
EmDmC
early mornin' rain and no place to go.
CDmG7
Out on runway number nine, big
C
seven-o-seven set to go Well I'm standin' on the
DmG7C
grass where the cold wind blows Well, the
DmG7
liquor tasted good and the women were all
CEmDm
fast Well there she goes, my friend, she's
C
rollin' now at last
     
CDmG7
Hear the might engines roar, see the
C
silver bird on high She's away and westward
DmG7C
bound, far above the clouds she'll fly Where
DmG7
the mornin' rain don't fall, and the sun
CEm
always shines She'll be flyin' o'er my home
DmC
in about three hours' time.
CDmG7
Well this old airport's go me down, it's
C
no earthly good to me 'Cause I'm stuck here on
DmG7C
the ground, as cold and drunk as I can be
DmG7
You can't jump a jet plane like you can a
CEmDm
freight train So I best be on my way, in the
C
early mornin' rain
