[INTRO:] D
[CHORUS:]
G D That long thin dawn G D That long thin dawn Dsus2 D Is coming on again
[VERSE 1:]
G D I've seen the hills of Frisco and the streets of Montreal E7 A In every town I've been to I've had someone to call D G D From Winnipeg to Edmonton, Vancouver to St. Paul G A I've had so many good friends, I couldn't miss them all
[CHORUS:]
G D That long thin dawn G D That long thin dawn Dsus2 D Is coming on again
[VERSE 2:]
G D Last night I came to Denver, beneath the snow capped ridge E7 A I thought about my darling as I stood beneath the bridge D G D And there were times I made her cry, but I guess by now she's learned G A That any time I've wandered, I always have returned
[CHORUS:]
G D In that long thin dawn G D That long thin dawn Dsus2 D Is coming on again
[VERSE 3:]
G D Right now I'm on a highway, just east of Omaha E7 A Riding shotgun on the biggest rig you ever saw D G D With forty tons of pig iron and a trucker known as Bill G A All the way to Windsor, we've got some miles to kill
[CHORUS:]
G D In that long thin dawn G D That long thin dawn Dsus2 D Is coming on again
[VERSE 4:]
G D While climbing up a hillside, Bill drops her down a gear E7 A And the engine sings so sweetly, 'tis music to my ear D G D I tell him how I long to be just like him if I can G A Driving like the restless wind, across this precious land
[CHORUS:]
G D In that long thin dawn G D That long thin dawn Dsus2 D Is coming on again
[VERSE 5:]
G D Says Bill, "The air is clean tonight," as he puffs a big cigar E7 A "And if this rig keeps rolling, my boy you'll travel far D G D But when you are a trucker you'll come to realize G A The only thing a man can do is watch the world go by"
[CHORUS:]
G D In that long thin dawn G D That long thin dawn Dsus2 D Is coming on again
[CHORUS:]
G D That long thin dawn G D That long thin dawn Dsus2 D Is coming on again
