Long Thin Dawn Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]That lon[G]g thin daw[D]n,
that [G]long thin [D]dawn is coming [G]on [D]again

[Verse 2]
I've seen the hills [D]of Frisco
and the [G]streets of [D]Montreal
In every town I've been to
I've [E]had someone [A]to call
From [D]Winnipeg to Edmonton,
Van[G]couver to St. [D]Paul
I've had so many good friends
I [G]couldn't miss [A]them all

[Verse 3]
In that [G]long thin [D]dawn,
that [G]long thin [D]dawn is coming on again

[Verse 4]
Last [D]night I came to Denver be
[G]neath the snowcapped [D]ridge
I thought about my darling as I
[E]stood beneath [A]the bridge
And [D]there were times I made her cry but
I guess [G]by now she's [D]learned
That any time I've wandered I
[G]always have re[A]turned
In that [G]long

[Verse 5]
thin [D]dawn,
that [G]long thin [D]dawn is coming [G]on [D]again

[Verse 6]
Right now I'm on [D]a highway
just [G]east of Oma[D]ha
Riding shotgun on the biggest
[E]rig you ever [A]saw
With [D]forty tons of pig iron and
[G]a trucker known as [D]Bill
All the way to Windsor,
we've [G]got some miles to [A]kill

[Verse 7]
In that [G]long thin [D]dawn,
that [G]long thin [D]dawn is coming on again

[Verse 8]
While [D]climbing up a hillside,
Bill [G]drops her down [D]a gear
And the engine sings so sweetly
'tis [E]music to my [A]ear
I [D]tell him how I long to be
just [G]like him if I [D]can
Driving like the restless wind
[G]across this precious [A]land
In that [G]long

[Verse 9]
thin [D]dawn,
that [G]long thin [D]dawn is coming on again

[Verse 10]
Says Bill, "The air is [D]clean tonight",
as he [G]puffs a big ci[D]gar
"And if this rig keeps rolling,
my [E]boy you'll travel [A]far
But [D]when you are a trucker
you'll [G]come to real[D]ize
The only thing a man can do is
[G]watch the world go [A]by"

[Verse 11]
In that [G]long thin [D]dawn,
that [G]long thin [D]dawn is coming [G]on [D]again
That [G]long thin [D]dawn,
that [G]long thin [D]dawn is coming on again
