G
There's no stronger wind than the one that blows
C G
Down a lonesome railroad line
G
No prettier sight than looking back
A7 D
On a town you left behind
G
There is nothin' that's as real
C G
As a love that's in my mind
D
Close your eyes
C
I'll be here in the morning
D
Close your eyes
C Em D
I'll be here for a while
G
There's lots of things along the road
C G
I'd surely like to see
G
I'd like to lean into the wind
A7 D
And tell myself I'm free
G
But your softest whisper's louder
C G
Than the highway calls to me
D
Close your eyes
C
I'll be here in the morning
D
Close your eyes
C Em D
I'll be here for a while
SOLO
G
All the mountains and the rivers
C G
And the valleys can't compare
G
To your blue lit dancin' eyes
A7 D
Yellow shining hair
G
I could never hit the open road
C G
And leave you lying there
D
Close your eyes
C
I'll be here in the morning
D
Close your eyes
C Em D
I'll be here for a while
G
Lay your head back easy, love,
C G
Close your cryin' eyes
G
I'll be layin' here beside you
A7 D
When the sun comes on the rise
G
I'll stay as long as the cuckoo wails
C G
And the lonesome bluejay cries.
D
Close your eyes
C
I'll be here in the morning
D
Close your eyes
C Em D
I'll be here for a while
Em D Em D over and fade out
