Gordon Lightfoot – Early Morning Rain (Ukulele)

C                    G
In the early morning rain

F                   C
With a dollar in my hand

                     G
With an aching in my heart

F                      C
And my pockets full of sand

                     G
I m a long ways from home

F                         C
And I missed my loved one so

                     G
In the early morning rain

F                C    
With no place to go

                     G
Out on runway number nine

F              C
Big 707 set to go

                          G
But I m stuck here in the grass

F                   C
Where the cold wind blows

                      G
Now the liquor tasted good

F                      C
And the women all were fast

                       G
Well there she goes my friend

F                     C   F G F C F C
She s rolling down at last

                        G
Hear the mighty engines roar

F                      C
See the silver bird on high

                        G
She s away and westward bound

F                        C
Far above the clouds she flies

                             G
Where the morning rain don t fall

F                  C
And the sun always shines

                         G
She ll be flying over my home

F                    C   F G F C F C
In about three hours time

                          G
This old airport s got me down

F                       C
It s no earthly good to me

                            G
Cause I m stuck here on the ground

F                          C
As cold and drunk as I can be

                     G
You can t jump a jet plane

F                      C
Like you can a freight train

                   G
So I best be on my way

F                    C
In the early morning rain

                     G
You can t jump a jet plane

F                      C
Like you can a freight train

                   G
So I best be on my way

F                    C
In the early morning rain
