Gordon Bok - Turning Toward The Morning Chords

Chord reference G, C, D7

Rhythm tips ↓-↓↑-↑↓↑

When the [G]deer has bedded down and the [C]bear has gone to ground And the [G]northern goose has wandered off to [C]warmer bay and [D7]sound It’s so [G]easy in the cold to feel the [C]darkness of the year And the [G]heart is growing [D7]lonely for the [C]morning [G]

Oh, my [D7]Joanie, don’t you know that the [G]stars are swingin’ slow And the [G]seas are rollin’ easy as they [C]did so long a[D7]go And if I [G]had a thing to give you I would [C]tell you one more time That the [G]world is always [D7]turning toward the [C]morning [G] [D7] [G]

Now Oc[G]tober’s growin’ thin and No[C]vember’s comin’ home You’ll be [G]thinking of the seasons and the [C]sad things that you’ve [D7]seen And you hear that old wind walkin’ hear him [C]singin’ high and thin You could [G]swear he’s out there [D7]singin’ of your [C]sorrow [G]

When the [G]darkness falls around you and the [C]north wind comes to blow And you [G]hear him call your name out as he C]walks the brittle [D7]snow That old [G]wind don’t mean you trouble, he don’t [C]care or even know He’s just [G]walkin’ down the [D7]darkness toward the [C]morning [G]

It’s a [G]pity we don’t know what the [C]little flowers know They can’t [G]face the cold November they can’t [C]take the wind and [D7]snow They put their [G]glories all behind them bow their [C]heads and let it go But you [G]know they’ll be there [D7]shining in the [C]morning [G]
