Verse
E F#m A
Lie awake in the morning light, I couldn’t sleep through the easy night
E
It's hard to rest from a worried mind
F#m A E F#m A
imagining what I'd like to find
E F#m A
your voice is ringing in my ears, I haven't heard for three long years
E
‘cause you flew on down to Chapel Hill
F#m A E F#m A
now I hear your call through the whippoorwill
[Chorus]
C#m E
Could it be you trying to say to me?
A B
you're still with me baby, I'm still here
C#m E
Had to fly but don't wonder why
A B
‘cause some things due to you that they come in time
[Verse 2]
E F#m A
We used to sing those Broadway tunes, Carole King, Johnny and June
E
we would stoke a little fire and curl on up baby
F#m A E F#m A
just the two of us
E
Now I don’t know why I turned away
F#m A
cause now I look back to the good ol’ days
E F#m A
but a part of you is with me still ‘cause I hear your call,
E F#m A
through the whippoorwill
[Chorus]
C#m E
Could it be you trying to say to me?
A B
you're still with me baby, I'm still here
C#m E
Had to fly but don't wonder why
A B
‘cause some things due to you that they come in time
[Verse 3]
E F#m A
We used to sing those Broadway tunes, Carole King, Johnny and June
E
we would stoke a little fire and curl on up baby
F#m A E F#m A
just the two of us
E F#m A
And other birds might flock to me with all their songs and melodies
E F#m A
I love them all, I do, it's true but when I hear that call
E F#m A
I know it's you
[Outro]
E F#m A
your voice is ringing in my ears, I haven't heard for three long years
E
‘cause you flew on down to Chapel Hill
F#m A E F#m A
now I hear your call through the whippoorwill
E F#m A E
through the whippoorwill
