Townes Van Zandt, I'll Be Here In The Morning
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
G C G
There's no stronger wind than the one that blows down a lonesome railroad line.
G Am D
There's no prettier sight than lookin' back on a town you've left behind.
G C G
There's nothing that's as real as the love that's in my mind.
D C
Close your eyes I'll be here in the mornin',
D Am Em
Close your eyes I'll be here for a while.
G C G
There's lots of things a-lookin' back I'd surely like to see.
G Am D
I'd like to lean into the wind and tell myself I'm free
G C G
But your softest whispers louder than the highway's call to me
D C
Close your eyes I'll be here in the mornin',
D Am Em
Close your eyes I'll be here for a while.
G C G
All the mountains and the rivers and the valleys can't compare
G Am D
To your bluely dancin' eyes and yellow shinin' hair
G C G
I could never hit the open road and leave you lyin' there
D C
Close your eyes I'll be here in the mornin',
D Am Em
Close your eyes I'll be here for a while.
G C G
Aw lay your head back easy love and close your cryin' eyes
G Am D
I'll be layin' here beside you when the sun comes on the rise
G Am D
And I'll stay as long as the cuckoo wails and the lonesome Blue Jay cries.
D C
Close your eyes I'll be here in the mornin',
D Am Em
Close your eyes I'll be here for a while.
