Cry Of The Whippoorwill
<CHORUS>
C G
Now listen close and you can hear
C G
Their mournful cries ring through the
darkness
G D
Lovers lost and all alone; Spirits to
forever roam
G
1.
Like a night bird’s wail when the wind is still; The sound of a river and a
whippoorwill
2.
It’s a bitter wind that sings their song; ‘Bout a love so right and yet so
wrong
G D
1.
Like the driving rain on a roof of tin; Her words of love call out to him
2.
And promised hearts where passions dwell; No one can see, no one can tell
1.
<TURNAROUND>
2.
<CHORUS>
G
1.
In the chill of a night thru the falling show; Two hearts run wild, nowhere to
go
2.
Souls lost in time, they were never found; Frozen in silence on the cold hard
ground
G D
1.
Crossing hills and valleys wide; To meet once more on the other side
2.
Forever one, forever free; Wrapped in the arms of eternity
