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