Joan Baez - In The Quiet Morning

[intro]
A

[verse 1]
A
In the quiet morning there was much despair
And in the hours that followed
no one could repair
Bm
That poor girl
Bm
Tossed by the tides of misfortune
Bm
Barely here to tell her tale
Rolled in on a sea of disaster
       E                   E7
Rolled out on a mainline rail
A
She once walked right at my side I'm
sure she walked by you
    Bm
Her striding steps could not deny
   E                       E7
torment from a child who knew

[verse 2]
     A
That in the quiet morning
there would be despair
    A
And in the hours that followed
                  A7
no one could repa-ir
Bm
That poor girl
She cried out her song so loud
It was heard the whole world round
a symphony of violence
    E                   E7
The great southwest unbound

[interlude]
   A
La la la lalala la la
                   Bm
La la la la lalala la
La la la lalala la la
         E7
La la la laaa
      A
La la laaaaa

[verse 3]
A
In the quiet morning there was much despair
And in the hours that followed
                  A7
no one could repa-ir
Bm
That poor girl
Tossed by the tides of misfortune
Barely here to tell her tale
Rolled in on a sea of disaster
       E                   E7
Rolled out on a mainline rail
