So Says The Whippoorwill

(início)

INTRO: C  F  C  F  G  C  F  C  F
    C               F          C   F
The change could happen any day
       G                C
So says the whippoorwill
                   F            C
It hangs 'round for the seeds I leave
    F Dm         G      F
Out on the windowsill
             C        Dm           C
"Be-free-you-fool, be-free-you-fool"
    F     ~   Dm        G   C
She sings all afternoon
                       F        C      F
Then, as if to show me how it's done
          G        C     F  C  F
She leaps into the blue
        C               F       C    F
And the change could happen any day
       G       C
So say all the guards
                     F      C      F
In the prison I have built around
~    Dm     G       F
My solitary heart
         C         Dm    C
I tell myself that I'm alright
          F   ~  Dm          G    C
That it's not so bad a place
                            F         C      F
The truth is, that I'm just scared to death
           G            C     F  C  F
Of walking through that gate
        C               F       C    F
And the change could happen any day
       G              C
So say my true love's eyes
              F       C
They see into my shadows
           F ~ Dm           G       F
With their swe-et, forgiving light
               C           Dm        C
She smiles and says, "Come on, let's go
      F ~ Dm          G       C
Let's stroll the boulevard.
                 F             C
It's such a shame to waste the night
F            G      C
Just sitting in the dark"
INSTRUMENTAL: C    F  C  Dm  C  F ~ Dm  G    C  G  F  C  F  G  C
                        F       C    F
And the change could happen any day
        G         C
Or so says Father Brown
                  F           C
I listen for that still small voice
      F    ~     Dm      G     F
But I just can't make it out
            C        Dm     C
Beneath the constant whispering
       F ~   Dm   C G
Of the devil that I know
    C           G      F   C
But who would I be, if I believed?
    F     G    C
Who am I, if I don't?
                            F   C    F
And the change could happen any day
     G             C
So said the mountaineer
                    F        C
Before he turned to face his cliff
    F ~ Dm            G
With----out a trace of fear
      F     C         Dm    C
Yodel-ay-he-oh, yodel-ay-he-hoo
   F    ~     Dm C G
He sang right up until
   C            G       F    C
He caught sight of that open blue
      F  G           C
And became a whippoorwill
   C            G       F    C
He caught sight of that open blue
      F  G           C
And became a whippoorwill
