D G A G D G

D                    A
In the early morning rain
G                   D
With a dollar in my hand
                     A
With an aching in my heart
G                      D
And my pockets full of sand
                     A
I'm a long ways from home
G                         D
And I missed my loved one so
                     A
In the early morning rain
G                D
With no place to go

                     A
Out on runway number nine
G              D
Big 707 set to go
                          A
But I'm stuck here in the grass
G                   D
Where the cold wind blows
                      A
Now the liquor tasted good
G                      D
And the women all were fast
                       A
Well there she goes my friend
G                     D   G A G D G D
She's rolling down at last

                        A
Hear the mighty engines roar
G                      D
See the silver bird on high
                        A
She's away and westward bound
G                        D
Far above the clouds she flies
                             A
Where the morning rain don't fall
G                  D
And the sun always shines
                         A
She'll be flying over my home

G                    D   G A G D G D
In about three hours time

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

                     A
You can't jump a jet plane
G                      D
Like you can a freight train
                   A
So I best be on my way
G                    D
In the early morning rain
