The Nightingale Chords & Lyrics - Trisha Yearwood

INTRO: [C] [Am] [F] [C] [Am] [F] [C]

Yesterday I [Am]thought [F]that I walked a[C]lone
And that [Am]love was [F]just a memo[G]ry
But a [C]nightin[Am]gale [F]followed me back [C]home
And my [Am]love was [F]waiting [G]there for [C]me [F] [C]

I had lost my [Am]faith as [F]lovers often [C]do
When the [Am]storm clouds [F]gather over[G]head
But the [C]nightin[Am]gale [F]sang a note so [C]true
That I [Am]knew I'd [F]lost my [G]fear in[C]stead [F] [C]

[CHORUS]
And to think that [Am]I said [F]love was for [C]fools
And that time would [Am]never heal [F]these [D]old w[G]ounds
But the [C]nightingale [Am]saved a [F]prayer for [C]me
In the [Am]twilight [F]played a [G]faithful [C]tune [F] [C]

INSTRUMENTAL: (## same as verse ##)

I have heard the [Am]lark [F]over in the [C]vale
And I've [Am]heard the [F]lonesome whippoor[G]will
But the [C]sweetest [Am]song [F]is the nightin[C]gale's
And I [Am]know I'll [F]never [G]get my [C]fill [F] [C]

[CHORUS]
And to think that [Am]I said [F]love was for [C]fools
And that time would [Am]never heal [F]these [D]old w[G]ounds
But the [C]nightingale [Am]saved a [F]prayer for [C]me
In the [Am]twilight [F]played a [G]faithful [C]tune [F] [C]
But the nightin[Am]gale [C]saved a prayer for me
In the [Am]twilight he [F]played a [G]faithful [C]tune [D7] [G7] [C]
