[Interlude]

[Verse]
E B A E
Got my window open in the southern cross hotel
E B A E
It's been my longest night i can tell
E B A E
By the way i'm not surprised
E B A E
To see the desert cover over paradise
E B A E
Now count every rhododendron in this cool mountain light
E B A E
I made more mistakes than that just tonight
E B A E
So all of you folks in heaven not too busy ringing the bell
E B A E
Some of us down here ain't doing very well
E B A E
Some of us with our windows open in the southern cross motel
[Chorus]
E B A E
Still waitin
E B A E
Still waitin
[Verse]
E B A E
For you to sing that song again
E B A E
The one you were singin at the very fall of man
E B A E
It ain't hallelujah but it might as well have been
E B A E
Sing it brother one more time
E B A E
Sing it brother one more time
E B A E
Sing it sister one more time
E B A E
Sing it sister one more time
E B A E
Once for everybody who got left behind
[Chorus]
E G#m
Whip-poor-will
A E
Oh whip-poor-will
E G#m
Whip-poor-will
E G#m
Whip-poor-will
A E
Oh whip-poor-will
E G#m
Whip-poor-will
E G#m
Whip-poor-will
A E
Oh whip-poor-will
E G#m
Whip-poor-will
[Outro]
B A E B E
Looks like I never made it back from the southern cross hotel
