{c: Thanks Don Orgeman}
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]
{c: }
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]
{c: }
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]
{c: }
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]
{c: }
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]
{c: }
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]
{c: }
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]
{c: Repeat the following }
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]
