INTRO: G C/G D/F# C2 G
/B /C D D/A C2 G C/G G5
In the early morning rain . . . . . With a dollar in my hand
Am C/B C C2 G C/G G5
And an achin' in my heart . . . . . And my pockets full of sand
Am C/B C C2 G C/G G5
I'm a long way from home . . . . . And I miss my loved ones so
/B /C D D/A C2 G C/G G5
In the early morning rain . . . . . With no place to go
Out on runway number nine . . . . . Big seven-o-seven set to go
But I'm out here on the ground . . Where the cold winds blow
You can't jump a jet plane . . . . Like you can a freight train
So I'd best be on my way . . . . . In the early morning rain
INTERLUDE: D/F# % C2 % G C/G G5 %

D D/A C2 % G C/G G5 %
Hear the mighty engines roar . . . See the silver bird on high
She's away and westward bound . . . Far above my home she'll fly
Where the mornin' rain don't fall . And the sun always shines
She'll be flyin' past my home . . . In about three hours' time
In the early morning rain . . . . . With a dollar in my hand
And an achin' in my heart . . . . . And my pockets full of sand
I'm a long way from home . . . . . And I miss my loved ones so
In the early morning rain . . . . . With no place to go
In the early morning rain . . . . . With no place to go

Bm Am D7/F# G Gsus4 G
In the early morning rain . . . . . With a dollar in my hand
Am D7/F# G Gsus4 G

In the early morning rain . . . . . With no place to go
Out on runway number nine . . . . . Big seven-o-seven set to go
But I'm out here on the grass . . . Where the pavement never grows
Well the liquor tasted good . . . . And the women all were fast
There she goes my friend . . . . . She's rollin' down at last
Hear the mighty engine roar . . . . See the silver wing on high
She's away and westward bound . . . Far above the clouds she'll fly
Where the mornin' rain don't fall . And the sun always shines
She'll be flyin' o'er my home . . . In about three hours' time
This old airport's got me down . . It's no earthly good to me
'Cause I'm stuck here on the ground As cold and drunk as I might be
You can't jump a jet plane . . . . Like you can a freight train
So I'd best be on my way . . . . . In the early morning rain
Am D7/F# G Gsus4 G
So I'd best be on my way . . . . . In the early morning rain
