Nightingale

Intro: F#m7  A

       F#m7
Oh the world is still
                               A
It's quiet as a mouse, it's 3 am
                                                  F#m7
Wide awake, I'm trying to get the words out of my mouth
                                                 A
But I can't make a sound since you left me lying here in my bed
While you're running off with him

           F#m7                          A
Everything in my world was yours, when I held you tenderly
      Bm7                      F#m7                        E
I was once in his shoes, I had everything to lose and so I did
                                D7+      Bm7           F#m7
It wasn't long ago when I could feel the breeze of you blowing on my skin
        D7+       Bm7           F#m7
I could feel your touch as your arms were closing in
           D7+      Bm7       F#m7                                Em
If I could muster a sound I'd sing this song out loud just like a Nightingale

( F#m7  A )

      F#m7                                   A
I was driving fast with roses on my seat and headed home
I was late with dinner getting cold
            F#m7
When I was struck in the side of the car
                    A
And then I saw your face
I couldn't move, I couldn't say a word to you

           F#m7                          A
Everything in my world was yours, when I held you tenderly
          Bm7                               F#m7
Oh now my world is caving in because you're sleeping next to him
           E
If I could die
    E
You bet your life I would

                D7+      Bm7           F#m7
Because I can't feel the breeze of you blowing on my skin
        D7+       Bm7           F#m7
I can't feel your touch as your arms are closing in
           D7+      Bm7       F#m7                                  Em
If I could muster a sound I'd sing this song out loud just like the Nightingale
    Am
The Nightingale

       Bm7                            F#m7                       E
If the tables had been turned I could never go without you by my side
          E
But I'm reminded everyday how
        D7+      Bm7           F#m7
I can't feel the breeze of you blowing on my skin
        D7+       Bm7           F#m7
I can't feel your touch as your arms are closing in
           D7+      Bm7      F#m7                                  Em
If I could muster a song I'd sing this song out loud just like the Nightingale
    Em
The Nightingale

        D7+      Bm7            F#m7
I can't feel the breeze of you blowing on my skin
        D7+       Bm7           F#m7
I can't feel your touch as your arms are closing in
           D7+      Bm7       F#m7                                Em
If I could muster a sound I'd sing this song out loud just like a Nightingale
    Am
