Nightingale Chords by Carole King

[N] _ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Like [D] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ some _ [G] night _ _ [D] bird homeward wingin' _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ Besides the [D] _ sheltered _ nest _
Like [G] the _ _ _ _ seller's [D] lost horizon _ _ _
_ He _ _ _ [G] needs some [D] place to _ _ rest
The _ songs [A] that he's been singin' _ _ _ [D] make much sense
And [G] those strangers' cold [F#m] perceptions
_ [Em] They've killed his _ confidence
_ [D] _ _ Nightingale, she sails _ _ _ on a sea of song
_ _ _ Nightingale, she _ serenades his lonely, lonely [G] life along
When [Em] his tired voice [Bm] is broken, _ [Em] his golden hope [Bm] is gone
[Em] She makes a lost soul's simple [Bm] _
longing somehow [G] or not so wrong
_ _ [D] _ Nightingale, _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
he was strong, [G] _ _
but [D] he was taken _ _ _ _
By [G] the plot of _ _ [D] his _ success _ _ _
_ [G] Those spotlight _ _ [D] shadows have ignored him _ _ _
_ And took _ him [G]
like all [D] the rest _ _ _
_ But now dreams all [A] are _ gone, no, it don't seem [D] quite the same
_ [G] He needs to hear a [F#m] tender word [Em] to sing him home _ again
_ [D] Nightingale, _ he sails _ _ upon a sea [G] of song
_ [D] _ Nightingale, she serenades his lonely, lonely life along
[G] When [Em] his strength is slowly [Bm] _
going, [Em] his pride is all [Bm] but gone
She makes [Em] foolish _ [Bm] dreamer listen [G] to one last song
_ _ _ Nightingale, _ _ _ _ _ _ he _ sings goodnight, _ nightingale _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
