Chords for Gordon Lightfoot - Early Morning Rain (Live in Chicago - 1979)

[G] This was [Bb] my _ first real good [Gm] song.
It was also the one [Dm] that _ _ _ [F]
sort of gave me a hand up the ladder.
Peter, Paul and Mary recorded it and got a big hit with it.
Which sort of got me started in show business and got me on to the next level.
So we'll do it for you.
If you recognize it.
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ [Bb] _ [F] _ _ [Bb] _ _
[F] _ _ Only I'm on [C] a rail _
_ [Bb] With a dollar [F] in my [Bb] hand
[F] _ With an aching [Bb] in my heart
_ And my pockets [F] full of [Bb] sand _
[F] I'm a long [Bb] way from home _
[C] _ I miss my [F] loved one so
In the early [C] morning _ rain
_ [Bb] With no [F] place to [Bb] go _
[F] _ Out on the runway [C] in the night _ _
_ _ [Bb] Big 707 [F] said to go
[Bb] And [F] _ I'm stuck here [Bb] in the grass
With the pain that [F] ever grows
[Bb] _ _
[F] Now the liquor [Bb] tasted good _
[C] And the women [F] all were fast _
But either way she [C] goes my friend _ _
_ [Bb] She'll be rolling [F] down at last
[Bb] _ _
[C] _ _ [Bb] _ [F] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
[F] _ Hear the mighty [C] engine smoke _ _
See [Bb] the sailor wing [F] on high _
She is a wind [Bb] westward bound _
Far above the clouds [F] she'll fly _ _
There the morning [Bb] rain don't _ fall
[C] And the sun [F] always shines _
_ She'll be flying over [C] my home _ _
_ [Bb] In about three [F] hours [Bb] time _
[C] It's [Bb] _ _ [F] _ _ [Bb] _ [C] _
[F] _ only the pulse got [C] me down _ _ _
[Bb] It's no earthly good [F] to me _ _
Because I'm stuck here [Bb] on the ground
As _ cold and drunk as I [F] can be _ _
You can't jump a jet [Bb] plane _ _
[C] Like you can't a freight [F] _ train _
So I must be [C] on my way _
_ [Bb] In the early [F] morning rain _
You can't jump a jet [Bb] _ plane _
[C] Like you can't a freight [F] _ train _
So I must be [C] on my _ way
_ [Bb] In the early [F] morning rain
[Bb] _ _ [C] _ _ [Bb] _ _ [F] _ _ [Bb] _ [C] _
_ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
