[D] [G] [A] [G] [D] [G] [D]
In the early morning [A] rain with a [G] dollar in my [D] hand [G] [D]
With an aching in my [G] heart [A] and my pockets full of [D] sand [G] [D]
I'm a long way from [G] home [A] and I miss my loved ones [D] so [G] [D]
In the early morning [A] rain with [G] no place to [D] go [G] [D]
Out on runway number [A] nine a big [G] 707's set to [D] go [G] [D]
But, I'm stuck here in the [G] grass [A] where the cold wind [D] blows [G] [D]
Now, the liquor tasted [G] good [A] and the women all were [D] fast [G] [D]
Well, there she goes my [A] friend, she’ll be [G] rolling down at [D] last
[G] [A] [G] [D] [G] [D]
Hear the mighty engines [A] roar - see the [G] silver bird on [D] high [G] [D]
She's away and westward [G] bound [A] far above the clouds she'll [D] fly [G] [D]
There the morning rain don't [G] fall [A] and the sun always [D] shines [G] [D]
She'll be flying over my [A] home in about [G] three hours [D] time
[G] [A] [G] [D] [G] [D]
This old airport's got me [A] down - it's no [G] earthly good to [D] me [G] [D]
'Cause I'm stuck here on the [G] ground [A] as cold and drunk as I might [D] be [G] [D]
You can't jump a jet [G] plane [A] like you can a freight [D] train [G] [D]
So I'd best be on my [A] way in the [G] early morning [D] rain [G] [D]
You can't jump a jet [G] plane [A] like you can a freight [D] train [G] [D]
So I'd best be on my [A] way in the [G] early morning [D] rain [G] [D]
