Blackberry Smoke - The Whippoorwill
[Am] [D] [Am] [D]
Go[Am]ing through life the r[D]ighteous way
The [Am]only way so the pre[D]acher would say
You [Am]put me on the Je[D]richo Road
Ba[Am]refoot and smilin st[D]anding over here by the piano
Chorus:
Well I d[C]reamed [B]I h[Am]eard t[G]hat Whippoor[F]will sing
She sa[C]ng m[B]y s[Am]ong a[G]nd she c[F]alled me my name
[E]And I hung my head in shame.
[Am] [D] [Am] [D]
You se[Am]wed my years together like a pa[D]tchwork quilt
Your b[Am]ougenvie is bloomed yea it n[D]ever will
The l[Am]essons I remember and s[D]ome that I forgot
are pr[Am]ecious and pure now like o[D]ne honeysuckle drop
Chorus:
Well I dr[C]eamed [B]I h[Am]eard th[G]at Whippoor[F]will sing
Yes she s[C]ang [B]my s[Am]ong a[G]nd c[F]alled me by name
[E]And I hung my head in shame
[Am] [D] [Am] [D] [Am] [D]
Lord above..
