One too Many Mornings - chords, tab and comments
This song is from Dylan's third album "The Times They Are a-Changin'" (1964). Four years later Burl Ives released an album with the same title, including this song as well as the title song and "I'll Be Your Baby Tonight". Ives' album was overall not well received, called "ludicrous". But this was the first time I *listened* to Dylan, and it introduced me to Jimmy Webb and John Hartford, too.
The original is fingerpicked in C major, and simpler in harmonies. As usual, I had to take it down ½ octave, and I've put in some chords You may disagree with. But this is *my* way. Here we go:
G Gmaj7 Em ...Em7
down the street the dogs are barking
D7/9 D7 G
and the day is getting dark
Gmaj7 Bm
as the night comes in falling
A7 D7
the dogs will lose their bark
G Gmaj7 Em ...Em7
as the silent night will shatter
D7/9 D7 G
from the sounds inside my mind
Gmaj7 E7/9 ...E7
for I'm one too many mornings
Cmaj7 Dsus4 G
and a thousand miles behind
