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

just the two of us
A Bm D
And other birds might flock to me with all their songs and melodies
A Bm D
I love them all, I do, it's true but when I hear that call
A Bm D
I know it's you

A Bm D
your voice is ringing in my ears, I haven't heard for three long years
