 C             Am                    C
 Yesterday I thought that I walked alone
           Am              G
 And that love was just a memory
         C     Am                     C
 But a nightingale followed me back home
         F         G               C
 And my love was waiting there for me
         C       Am                  C
 I had lost my faith as lovers often do
            Am                      G
 When the storm clouds gather over head
           C     Am                  C
 But the nightingale sang a note so true
         F         G              C     
 That I knew I'd lost my fear instead
         C         Am                    C
 And to think that I said love was for fools
           C          Am           F        G
 And that time would never heal these old wounds
            C    Am                     C
 But the nightingale saved a prayer for me
           F          G                 C
 In the twilight he played a faithful tune
          C        Am                C
 I have heard the lark over in the vale
            Am                       G
 And I've heard the lonesome whippo-will
            C      Am                  C
 But the sweetest song is the nightin-gale's
        F          G           C
 And I know I'll never get my fill
          C        Am                    C
 And to think that I said love was for fools
           C          Am           F        G
 And that time would never heal these old wounds
            C    Am                     C
 But the nightingale saved a prayer for me
           F          G                 C
 In the twilight he played a faithful tune
           C    Am                      C
 But the nightingale saved a prayer for me
           F          G                 C   D7  G7  C
 In the twilight he played a faithful tune
