Long Thin Dawn

[INTRO:] D

[CHORUS:]
     G         D
That long thin dawn
     G         D
That long thin dawn
   Dsus2      D
Is coming on again


[VERSE 1:]
                                      G                D
I've seen the hills of Frisco and the streets of Montreal
                                E7             A
In every town I've been to I've had someone to call
     D                        G             D
From Winnipeg to Edmonton, Vancouver to St. Paul
                                 G                  A
I've had so many good friends, I couldn't miss them all


[CHORUS:]
     G         D
That long thin dawn
     G         D
That long thin dawn
   Dsus2      D

[VERSE 2:]
                               G                      D
Last night I came to Denver, beneath the snow  capped ridge
                                E7                A
I thought about my darling as I stood beneath the bridge
    D                                      G                  D
And there were times I made her cry, but I guess by now she's learned
                               G             A
That any time I've wandered, I always have returned

[VERSE 3:]
                                 G          D
Right now I'm on a highway, just east of Omaha
                              E7           A
Riding shotgun on the biggest rig you ever saw
     D                            G                D
With forty tons of pig iron and a trucker known as Bill
                              G                 A
All the way to Windsor, we've got some miles to kill

That long thin dawn

[VERSE 4:]
                                   G                D
While climbing up a hillside, Bill drops her down a gear
                                      E7          A
And the engine sings so sweetly, 'tis music to my ear
  D                              G             D
I tell him how I long to be just like him if I can
                                 G                   A
Driving like the restless wind, across this precious land


[CHORUS:]
        G         D
In that long thin dawn
     G         D
That long thin dawn

[VERSE 5:]
                                             G             D
Says Bill, "The air is clean tonight," as he puffs a big cigar
                                   E7                A
"And if this rig keeps rolling, my boy you'll travel far
    D                             G          D
But when you are a trucker you'll come to realize
                               G                  A
The only thing a man can do is watch the world go by"
