I Washed My Face In The Morning Dew
Tom T. Hall
D MajorD G+G D MajorD
The first strange town I was ever in
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
The county was hangin' a man
D MajorD G+G D MajorD
Nobody cared if he lived or died
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
And I just didn't understand
D MajorD G+G D MajorD
So I washed my face in the morning dew
G+G D MajorD
Bathed my soul in the sun
G+G D MajorD
Washed my face in the morning dew
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
And kept on movin' along
D MajorD G+G D MajorD
The second strange town I was in
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
They were laughing at a poor crippled man
D MajorD G+G D MajorD
Begging for nickels and dimes on the street
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
And I just didn't understand
D MajorD G+G D MajorD
The third strange town that I was in
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
Was settled, peaceful and nice
D MajorD G+G D MajorD
The rich got richer and the poor got poorer
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
And to me it just didn't seem right
D MajorD G+G D MajorD
So I washed my face in the morning dew
G+G D MajorD
Bathed my soul in the sun
G+G D MajorD
Washed my face in the morning dew
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
And kept on movin' along
D MajorD G+G D MajorD
Some day things are bound to change
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
It can't be very far
D MajorD G+G D MajorD
And each injustice I have seen
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
Will come before the bar
D MajorD G+G D MajorD
Then I'll wash my face in the morning dew
G+G D MajorD
Bathe my soul in the sun
G+G D MajorD
Wash my face in the morning dew
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
And keep on movin' along
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
