Intro: g,a,c,e,g,e,d,c,Dm,G,C

C                    G     Dm     G            C

In the early mornin' rain, With a dollar in my hand

C                   Dm     G                      C

And an aching in my heart, And my pockets full of sand

C                    Dm    G                         C

I'm a long ways from home, And I missed my loved one so

C                    G     Dm      G        C

In the early mornin' rain, With no place to go

C                    G     Dm    G        C

Out on runway number nine, Big 707 set to go

C                        Dm     G                        C

Well I’m out here on the grass, Where the pavement never grows

C                       Dm    G                      C

Where the liquor tasted good, And the women all were fast

C                 G       Dm    G              C

There she goes my friend, She's rolling out at last

C                       G      Dm      G              C

Hear the mighty engines roar , See the silver wing on high

C                       Dm     G                        C

She's away and westward bound, For above the clouds she flies

C                            Dm    G                  C

Where the mornin' rain don't fall, And the sun always shines

C                        G     Dm G                 C

She'll be flying over my home, In about three hours time

C                         G     Dm      G               C

This ol' airport’s got me down, It's no earthly good to me

C                            Dm      G                         C

'Cause I’m stuck here on the ground, Cold and drunk as I might be

C                Dm      G                      C

Can't jump a jet plane , Like you can a freight train

C                  G    Dm     G             C

So I best be on my way, In the early mornin' rain

C                  Dm   G                    C

So I best be on my way, In the early mornin' rain

g,a,c,e,g,e,d,c,   Dm   G                    C

So I best be on my way, In the early mornin' rain
