I Wash My Face In The Morning Dew Chords & Lyrics - Johnny Cash

[VERSE]
[C]The first strange town [F]I was ever [C]in
The county was [G7]hanging a [C]man
Nobody cared if [F]he lived or [C]died
And I just didn't [G7]under[C]stand

[CHORUS]
So I [F]washed my face in the [C]morning dew
[F]Bathed my soul in the [C]sun
[F]Washed my face in the [C]morning [Am]dew
[C]And kept on [G7]moving [C]along

[VERSE]
The second strange town [F]that I was [C]in
They were laughing at a [G7]poor crippled [C]man
Begging for nickels and [F]dimes on the [C]street
I just didn't [G7]under[C]stand
The third strange town [F]that I was [C]in
Was settled [G7]peaceful and [C]nice
The rich got richer the [F]poor got [C]poorer
And to me it [G7]didn't seem [C]right

[CHORUS]
So I [F]washed my face in the [C]morning dew
[F]Bathed my soul in the [C]sun
[F]Washed my face in the [C]morning [Am]dew
[C]And kept on [G7]moving [C]along

[VERSE]
Well some times are [F]bound to [C]change
A change [G7]can't be very [C]far
And each injustice [F]I have [C]seen
Shall come [G7]before the [C]bar

[Chorus/Outro]
So I [F]washed my face in the [C]morning dew
[F]Bathed my soul in the [C]sun
[F]Washed my face in the [C]morning [Am]dew
[C]And my journey [G7]will be [C]done
And my journey [G7]will be [C]done
