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