Intro 1
(G major) (D major) (G major) (D major)
Verse 1
Like some (G major) night
bird homeward (D major) wingin
(G major) He seeks the sheltered (D major) nest
Like (G major) the sailor's lost hori (D major) zon,
He (G major) needs some place to (D major) rest
The songs (A major) that he's been singin'
No (B minor) longer (G major) make (Asus4) much sense
And (G major) those stranger's cold
percep (F sharp minor) tions
They've killed (E minor) his confid (Asus4) ence
Night (D major) ingale,
she sails away (G major) upon a sea of song
Nightin (D major) gale, she serenades his lonely,
(G major) lonely life along
When his tired (E minor) voice is broken (B minor)
His golden (E minor) hope is gone (B minor)
She (E minor) makes a lost soul's
simple long (B minor) ing
somehow (Asus4) not so wrong

Interlude 1
Nightingale, nightingale
(D major) (G major) (D major) (G major)
Verse 2
He was strong, (G major) but he was taken (D major)
By (G major) the thought of his suc (D major) cess
(G major) Those spotlights shadows
How they lured (D major) him (G major) and
took him like all the (D major) rest
But (A major) that old dream don't look good now
(B minor) No it (Asus4) don't seem quite the same
He (G major) needs to hear a tender (F sharp minor) word
Won't you sing (E minor) him home
again (Asus4)
Nightingale, (D major) she sails away
up (G major) on a sea of song
Nightin (D major) gale, she serenades his lonely,
(G major) lonely life along
When his strength (E minor) is slowly go (B minor) ing,
His pride (E minor) is all but gone (B minor)
She makes a fool (E minor) ish dreamer
listen (B minor) to (Asus4) one last song
Night (D major) ingale ooh (G major) sing
sweet night (D major) ingale
Oh, (G major) na, na, na, na
Night (D major) ingale ooh (G major) (D major) sing sweet nightingale
