Trisha Yearwood - The Nightingale
INTRO: C Am F C Am F C
Am F C
Yesterday I thought that I walked alone
Am F G
And that love was just a memory
C Am F C
But a nightingale followed me back home
Am F G C F C
And my love was waiting there for me
Am F C
I had lost my faith as lovers often do
Am F G
When the storm clouds gather overhead
C Am F C
But the nightingale sang a note so true
Am F G C F C
That I knew I'd lost my fear instead
CHORUS:
Am F C
And to think that I said love was for fools
Am F D G
And that time would never heal these old wounds
C Am F C
But the nightingale saved a prayer for me
Am F G C F C
In the twilight played a faithful tune
INSTRUMENTAL: (## same as verse ##)
C Am F C Am F G C Am F C Am F G C F C
Am F C
I have heard the lark over in the vale
Am F G
And I've heard the lonesome whippoorwill
C Am F C
But the sweetest song is the nightingale's
Am F G C F C
And I know I'll never get my fill
CHORUS:
Am F C
And to think that I said love was for fools
Am F D G
And that time would never heal these old wounds
C Am F C
But the nightingale saved a prayer for me
Am F G C F C
In the twilight played a faithful tune
Am C
But the nightingale saved a prayer for me
Am F G C D7 G7 C
In the twilight he played a faithful tune
