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