And mourning [G]doves can take their [C]rest

[VERSE]
I have a [G]dog, I have a [C]song
I have to [G]let the mystery roll [C]on [G]
I am alive, I am in [C]love
I want to [G]tell the mourning [C]dove [D] [C] [D]

[BRIDGE]
But when she [C]flew she did not [G]sing
The cold wind [C]whistled on her [D]wing

[VERSE]
Oh, do not [G]grieve, sweet mourning [C]dove
Your sad old [G]song is a song of [C]love
On the [G]day when I was [C]new
You held me [G]once, no one held [C]you

I think of [G]you as a mourning [C]dove
That only [G]flew on wings of [C]love
I think of [G]you as a mourning [C]dove
That only [G]flew on wings of [C]love [G] [C]
