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

And other birds might flock to me with all their songs and melodies

C# D#m F#
I know it's you
