Early Morning Rain Chords

(ver. 2)
Gordon Lightfoot
Intro:  C    Em   Dm    G7    C    Cadd9   C


C                     Em   Dm     G7           C     Cadd9 C
In the early morning rain, with a dollar in my hand
         Cadd9       Dm     G7                        C      Cadd9 C
With an aching in my heart,    and a pocket full of sand
      Cadd9          Dm       G7                          C    Cadd9 C
I'm a long ways from home,      and I miss  my loved one so
        Cadd9        Em    Dm   G7           C        Cadd9 C
In the early morning rain, with no place to  go


C                     Em   Dm    G7       C     Cadd9 C
Out on runway number nine, big 707 set to go
         Cadd9               Dm    G7                      C      Cadd9 C
And I’m stuck here in the grass,     with a pain that ever grows.
         Cadd9           Dm  G7                         C    Cadd9 C
Now the liquor tasted good,     and the women all were fast
               Cadd9         Em      Dm              G7              C
Well there she goes again my friend,     yeah, she's rolling down at last

(C - F - G - F - to 4th string walk down to C)


C                       Em   Dm           G7            C     Cadd9 C
Hear the mighty engines roar,    see the silver bird on high
      Cadd9               Dm     G7                               C      Cadd9 C
She's away and westward bound,       far above the clouds she'll fly
         Cadd9                Dm  G7                     C      Cadd9 C
Where the morning rain don't fall,    and the sun always shines
          Cadd9          Em    Dm     G7                 C     Cadd9 C
She'll be flying over my home,     in about three hour’s time


C                         Em   Dm          G7             C     Cadd9 C
This old airport’s got me down,   it's no earthly good to me
           Cadd9             Dm     G7                            C      Cadd9 C
'Cause I’m stuck here on the ground,   as cold and drunk as I can be
          Cadd9      Dm     G7                        C      Cadd9 C
You can't jump a jet plane     like you can a freight train
     Cadd9         Em     Dm        G7            C     Cadd9 C
So I best be on my way,      in the early morning rain


          Cadd9      Dm     G7                        C      Cadd9 C
You can't jump a jet plane     like you can a freight train
     Cadd9         Em     Dm        G7            C     (C - F - G - F - to 4th string walk down to C)
So I best be on my way,      in the early morning rain

(C - F - G - F - to 4th string walk down to C)
