Gordon Bok – Turning Toward The Morning Ukulele Chords

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

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

Now October’s growin’ thin and November’s comin’ home
You’ll be thinking of the seasons and the sad things that you’ve seen
And you hear that old wind walkin’ hear him singin’ high and thin
You could swear he’s out there singin’ of your sorrow

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

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

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

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

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