Gmaj7 Dmaj7 Like some night bird, homeward wingin' Gmaj7 Dmaj7 He seeks the sheltered nest Gmaj7 Dmaj7 Like the sailor's lost horizon Gmaj7 Dmaj7 He needs some place to rest A/B The songs that he's been singin' G/A No longer make much sense G6 F#m And those strangers' cold perceptions Em A11 They've killed his confidence Dmaj7 Nightingale Gmaj7 She sails away upon a sea of song Dmaj7 Nightingale Gmaj7 She serenades his lonely, lonely life along Em Bm When his tired voice is broken Em Bm His golden hope is gone Em Bm She makes a lost soul's simple longing A11 Somehow not so wrong Dmaj7 Gmaj7 Nightingale Dmaj7 Gmaj7 Nightingale Gmaj7 Dmaj7 He was strong, but he was taken Gmaj7 Dmaj7 By the thought of his success Gmaj7 Dmaj7 Those spotlight shadows, how they lured him Gmaj7 Dmaj7 And took him like all the rest A/B But that old dream don't look good now G/A No, it don't seem quite the same G6 F#m He needs to hear a tender word Em A11 Won't you sing him home again Dmaj7 Nightingale Gmaj7 She sails away upon a sea of song Dmaj7 Nightingale Gmaj7 She serenades his lonely, lonely life along Em Bm When his strength is slowly goin' Em Bm His pride is all but gone Em Bm She makes a foolish dreamer listen A11 To one last song Dmaj7 Gmaj7 Nightingale Dmaj7 Gmaj7 Nightingale
