[Verse 1]
D Em G
Lie awake in the morning light, I couldn’t sleep through the easy night
D
It's hard to rest from a worried mind
Em G D Em G
imagining what I'd like to find
D Em G
your voice is ringing in my ears, I haven't heard for three long years
D
‘cause you flew on down to Chapel Hill
Em G D Em G
now I hear your call through the whippoorwill
[Chorus]
Bm D
Could it be you trying to say to me?
G A
you're still with me baby, I'm still here
Bm D
Had to fly but don't wonder why
G A
‘cause some things due to you that they come in time
[Verse 2]
D Em G
We used to sing those Broadway tunes, Carole King, Johnny and June
D
we would stoke a little fire and curl on up baby
Em G D Em G
just the two of us
D
Now I don’t know why I turned away
Em G
cause now I look back to the good ol’ days
D Em G
but a part of you is with me still ‘cause I hear your call,
D Em G
through the whippoorwill
[Chorus]
Bm D
Could it be you trying to say to me?
G A
you're still with me baby, I'm still here
Bm D
Had to fly but don't wonder why
G A
‘cause some things due to you that they come in time
[Verse 3]
D Em G
We used to sing those Broadway tunes, Carole King, Johnny and June
D
we would stoke a little fire and curl on up baby
Em G D Em G
just the two of us
D Em G
And other birds might flock to me with all their songs and melodies
D Em G
I love them all, I do, it's true but when I hear that call
D Em G
I know it's you
[Outro]
D Em G
your voice is ringing in my ears, I haven't heard for three long years
D
‘cause you flew on down to Chapel Hill
Em G D Em G
now I hear your call through the whippoorwill
D Em G D
through the whippoorwill
