D
In
the early morning
A
rain
G
With
a dollar in my
D
hand
With an aching in my
Em
heart
G
And
my pockets full of
D
sand
I'm a long ways from
Em
home
G
And
I missed my loved one
D
so
In the early morning
A
rain
G
With
no place to
D
go
Out on runway number
A
nine
G
Big
707 set to
D
go
But I?m stuck here in the
Em
grass
G
Where
the cold wind
D
blows
Now the liquor tasted
Em
good
G
And
the women all were
D
fast
Well there she goes my
A
friend
G
She's
rolling down at
D
last
G
A
G
D
G
D
Hear the mighty engines
A
roar
G
See
the silver bird on
D
high
She's away and westward
Em
bound
G
Far
above the clouds she
D
flies
Where the morning rain don't
Em
fall
G
And
the sun always
D
shines
She'll be flying over my
A
home
G
In
about three hours
D
time

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