Capo III
D Em D Em
D Em A Em D
When I woke this morning, something inside of me, told me this would be my day
Em A Em D
I heard the morning train, I felt the wind change, too many times I'm on my way
A D G D
Come on sunshine, what can you show me
G D E7 A
Where can you take me to make me understand
G D G D
The wind can shake me, brothers forsake me
G D G Asus4 A
The rain can touch me, but can I touch the rain
D Em A Em D
And then I saw the sunrise, above the cotton sky, like a candy cane delight
Em A Em D
I saw the milkman, I saw the business man, I saw the only road in sight
Em A Em D
Then I got to thinking, what makes you want to go, to know the wherefore and the why
Em A Em D
So many times now, oh lord I can t remember, if it's September or July
D Em A D
Em A Em D
Then all at once it came to me, I saw the wherefore, and you can see it if you try
Em A Em D
It's in the sun above, it s in the one you love, you'll never know the reason why
A D G D
Come on sunshine, what can you show me
G D E7 A
Where can you take me to make me understand
G D G D
The wind can shake me, brothers forsake me
G D G Asus4 A
The rain can touch me, but can I touch the rain
So much to lose, so much to gain
D Em A Em D

Nobody bares their soul like Gordon Lightfoot. I had this album 50 years ago! and it sounds as good as ever.

Thank you...I believe you are correct...and I've made the changes and resubmitted to UG..I also added an A chord after each Asus4 for effect...
Thanks again...

Sounds better if you substitute an A Chord in all the lines where an F#m chord is followed by an Em chord
