Elvis Presley - Early Mornin' Rain chords
Start Jamming...
[G] [Em]
[G] [C]
In the early morning rain
[Dm] [G] With a dollar [C] in my hand
And bacon in my [Dm] heart
[G] And my pockets [C] full of sand
I'm a long ways from [Dm] home
[G] And I miss my loved [C] one so
In the early morning [Em] rain
[Dm] With no [C] place to go
Out on runway number nine
[Em]
[Dm] Next 707 [C] set to go
But I'm out here on the [Dm] grass
Where the pavement never [C] grows
Where the liquor tasted [Dm] good
[G] And the women all [C] wear fast
There she goes my friend
[Dm] She's rolling [C] out at last
Hear the mighty engines roll
[Em]
See [G] the silver [C] wing on high
She's a wing westward [Dm] bound
[G] Far above the [C] clouds she'll fly
Where the morning rain [Dm] won't fall
[G] And the sun always [C]
shines
She'll be flying over my [Em] home
In about [C] three hours time
This old air force got me [Em] down
[Dm] It's [G] no earthly good [C] to me
Cause I'm stuck here on the [Dm] ground
[G] Cold and drunk [C] as I might be
Can't jump a jet [Dm] plane
[G] Like you can't a freight [C] train
So I best be on my [Em] way
In the early [C] morning rain
So I best be on my [Dm] way
[G] In the early [C] morning rain
So I best be on my [Dm] way
[G] In the early [C] morning rain
So I best be on my way
