Capo 3

Intro: /D..../..../Em..../..../ /A..../...G./D..../...G./

D(2)                  A(3)
In the early morning rain
         G(1)         D(2)  Dsus2(1)  D(1)
With a dollar in my hand
                     Em(4)
With an achin' in my heart
                     D(2)  Dsus2(1) D(1)
And my pockets full of sand
                    Em(2)
I'm a long way from home
A(2)                      D(2) Dsus2(1) D(1)
And I miss my loved ones so
                     A(4)
In the early morning rain
     G(1)         D(2)  Dsus2(1)  D(1)
With no place to go


D(2)                  A(3)
Out on runway number nine
  G(1)         D(2)  Dsus2(1)  D(1)
Big seven-o-seven set to go
                        Em(4)
And I'm stuck here in the grass
                     D(2)  Dsus2(1) D(1)
Where the cold wind blows
                    Em(2)
Now the liquor tasted good
A(2)                      D(2) Dsus2(1) D(1)
And the women all were fast
                     A(4)
Well there she goes my friend
   G(1)         D(2)  Dsus2(1)  D(1)
She'll be rollin' down at last


D(2)                  A(3)
Hear the mighty engines roar
  G(1)         D(2)  Dsus2(1)  D(1)
See the silver wing on high
                        Em(4)
She's away and westward bound
                     D(2)  Dsus2(1) D(1)
Far above the clouds she'll fly
                    Em(2)
Where the mornin' rain don't fall
A(2)                   D(2) Dsus2(1) D(1)
And the sun always shines
                     A(4)
She'll be flyin' o'er my home
   G(1)         D(2)  Dsus2(1)  D(1)
In about three hours time

/D..../..../Em..../..../ /A..../...G./D


D(2)                  A(3)
This old airport's got me down
  G(1)         D(2)  Dsus2(1)  D(1)
It's no earthly good to me
                          Em(4)
'Cause I'm stuck here on the ground
                     D(2)  Dsus2(1) D(1)
As cold and drunk as I can be
                    Em(2)
You can't jump a jet plane
A(2)                   D(2) Dsus2(1) D(1)
Like you can a freight train
                     A(4)
So I'd best be on my way
   G(1)         D(2)  Dsus2(1)  D(1)
In the early morning rain

                   Em(2)
You can't jump a jet plane
A(2)                   D(2) Dsus2(1) D(1)
Like you can a freight train
                     A(4)
So I'd best be on my way
   G(1)         /D - G - /A - G - / D - G - / D (hold) 
In the early morning rain


That's all folks!
