[A] This was [Bb] John's latest song, All About the Mornings.
[F]
You know, there's [C] so many kinds of mornings in this world.
Let me just tell you about one.
[Bb] Let's just say the young [F] fireboy, Country Boy, from Cape Breton, Nova Scotia.
[C] [F]
[C] Well, he must have made a decision something [Bb] different than his daddy did,
firing on the fish in a coal mine and working [F] in a steel plant.
[C] It's not that he's not proud of his daddy, he is.
It's just that he finds himself living in the brand new [Eb] 21st [Bb] century,
up in the crust of the millennium.
Well, [F] there ain't no money in farming, and the fish is gone,
and the coal [C] mine is gone, and the steel plant is gone,
and all we got left is something they call the [Bb] tarpon.
[F] So, [C] a young man like that, [F]
[C] he'd head on out west, you know,
to get a job and make [Bb] a life.
Toronto, Calgary, [F] Edmonton, Vancouver, Portland, Fort Lauderdale,
Fort St.
[C] John, Fort Messonnier, Fort Nelson, Fort Saskatchewan, Fort
Somebody help me!
[Bb]
They'd get [F] himself a pretty good job, working stuff up the corporate ladder.
[C] For a little something.
Still won't help us, [Bb] no one will.
As [F] a young man like that, he'd have to find himself a good morning.
[C]
Well, it wouldn't be until morning five,
it wouldn't be too long [Bb] before the job would be gone,
and it's dead time, [F] he'd be gone down to the nearest
Canadian [C] National Railway Station, trying to buy a [F] train ticket.
[C] [Bb] So, the passenger train ain't going to go down to Cape Verde anymore.
[F] The government cut back, you understand.
[C]
[Dm] [C] So, he'd find [Bb] himself at four o'clock in the early morning,
down alongside [F] the railroad track,
[C]
and he'd come along and out [Bb] along,
and he'd try to get to me,
[F] he'd say, I'm [C]
going to take [Bb] a freight train,
down [F] to the station, boss,
I [C] don't care if I get killed.
[C] And [Bb] the eyes would be [F] rolling up,
and they'd tell me, I don't think [C] nobody's going to know.
Can't you see?
[Bb] Can't you see?
What [F] I've put on,
they're doing [C] things that I don't [F] believe.
