6. Early Morning Rain – Gordon Lightfoot

Chords: G, D, A

Gordon Lightfoot was the one who composed the song, but he wasn’t the first one to record it since that honor belongs to the duo Ian & Sylvia. A year later, Lightfoot recorded his own version that is still the most famous one. It uses just 3 chords, but you will need to carefully listen to the song if you want to catch the tempo accurately.
