Early Ukulele Chords

Early-Greg Brown
 
C         F                    C
Early one morning I walked out alone,
                  G                  C
I looked down the street; no one was around.
                 F                 C
The sun was just comin' up over my home,
           G                       C
On Hickory Street in a little farm town. And
 
[Chorus:]
C        F                       C
Oooo-ee, ain't the mornin' light pretty,
                      G                    C   C7  F
When the dew is still heavy, so bright and early.
   F           C                       G
My home on the range; it's a one-horse town,
                      C    F  C
And it's alright with me.
 
C              F                         C
Plow broke the prairie, the prairie gave plenty,
                 G                             C
The little towns blossomed and soon there were many.
               F                         C
Scattered like fireflies across the dark night,
                   G                             C
And one was called Early, and they sure named it right. 'Cause
 
 
[Chorus:]
C        F                       C
Oooo-ee, ain't the mornin' light pretty,
                      G                    C   C7  F
When the dew is still heavy, so bright and early.
   F           C                       G
My home on the range; it's a one-horse town,
                      C    F  C
And it's alright with me.
 
C                F               C
Many dry summers parched all the fields,
                    G                          C
They burnt the fine colors and cut down on the yield.
                 F                         C
But the rain has returned to wash away our tears,
                       G
It's the fullest green summer that
               G
We've seen for years. And
 
[Chorus]
C        F                       C
Oooo-ee, ain't the mornin' light pretty,
                      G                    C   C7  F
When the dew is still heavy, so bright and early.
   F           C                       G
My home on the range; it's a one-horse town,
                      C    F  C
And it's alright with me.
