CAPO 5th fret
INTRO:
G    Bm   Am   D7   G

G                    Bm   Am     D7           G     
In the early mornin' rain with a dollar in my hand
                    Am    D7                     G
And an achin' in my heart and my pockets full of sand
G                   Am          D7                G
I'm a long way from home, and I miss my loved one so
                     Bm    Am   D7          G 
In the early mornin' rain, with no place to go

G                    Bm    Am          D7           G
Out on runway number nine, big seven o seven set to go
                        Am              D7             G
But I'm out here on the grass where the pavement never grows
                        Am           D7             G
Well, the liquor tasted good and the women all were fast
G                  Bm        Am      D7             G
There she goes, my friends - She's a rollin down at last

G                       Bm     Am      D7             G
Hear the mighty engines roar - See the silver wing on high
G                       Am    D7                          G
She's away and westward bound far above the clouds she'll fly
G                            Am       D7             G
Where the mornin' rain don't fall and the sun always shines
G                        Bm      Am    D7          G
She'll be flyin' o'er my home in about three hours time

G                         Bm     Am      D7              G
This old airport's got me down - It's no earthly good to me
G                            Am     D7                        G
'Cause I'm stuck here on the ground cold and drunk as I might be
G                    Am    D7                     G          
You can't jump a jet plane like you can a freight train
G                    Bm  Am     D7            G
So I'd best be on my way in the early mornin' rain
G                    Am     D7                G
So I'd best be on my way in the early mornin' rain
