Verse
G Am 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
Am C G Am C
imagining what I'd like to find
G Am 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
Am C G Am C
now I hear your call through the whippoorwill
[Chorus]
Em G
Could it be you trying to say to me?
C D
you're still with me baby, I'm still here
Em 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 Am 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
Am C G Am C
just the two of us
G
Now I don’t know why I turned away
Am C
cause now I look back to the good ol’ days
G Am C
but a part of you is with me still ‘cause I hear your call,
G Am C
through the whippoorwill
[Chorus]
Em G
Could it be you trying to say to me?
C D
you're still with me baby, I'm still here
Em 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 Am 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
Am C G Am C
just the two of us
G Am C
And other birds might flock to me with all their songs and melodies
G Am C
I love them all, I do, it's true but when I hear that call
G Am C
I know it's you
[Outro]
G Am 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
Am C G Am C
now I hear your call through the whippoorwill
G Am C G
through the whippoorwill
