Some Early Morning

Dan Tyminski

Continues after the ad
Key:
Dm It was late one night in the heart
C G of town I was drinking all alone
Dm Ran out of cash when I paid my tab
F G so I headed home
Dm The night was black, the air was
C G thick as I wandered passed a barn
F Then a shot rang out and I heard a
A Dm scream beside me in the dark [Verse 2]
Dm Afraid that maybe I’d be next I
C G started to run
Dm Just as fast as my feet would go
F G into the barrel of a gun
Dm The lawman’s light was blinding me
C G he said why’d you do it son
F Two weeks later in a criminal
A Dm court I was up on murder one [CHORUS]
F C G Maybe some early morning in a
Dm pasture of green
Continues after the ad
F C G Beside the still water I’ll
Dm awake from this dream- This terrible dream [Verse 3]
Dm Well I sat there in the courtroom
C G as the tears ran down my face
Dm A guilty man is free somewhere and
F G they put me in his place
Dm The jury read the verdict and the
C G judge called out my name
F He said young man you’ll spend your
A Dm life wearing the ball and chain [Verse 4]
Dm Now I’m staring at the ceiling as
C G I lay here on my bed
Dm Fourteen long and lonely years
F G it’s where I laid my head
Dm Behind these cold gray prison walls
C G time sure passes slow
F And I unless I die tomorrow I’ve
A Dm still got life to go [CHORUS]
F C G Maybe some early morning in a
Dm pasture of green
F C G Beside the still water I’ll
Dm awake from this dream- This terrible dream [Verse 5]
Dm A man who’s lost his vision will
C G live and die alone
Dm In the cold walls of this prison my
F G heart has turned to stone
Dm The lights are growing dimmer as I
C G take my final breath
F I can smell the air of freedom as I
A Dm close my eyes in death [CHORUS]
F C G Maybe some early morning in a
Dm pasture of green
F C G Beside the still water I’ll
Dm awake from this dream- This terrible dream
