Judy Collins - Nightingale I
CAPO: 2nd Fret
[Intro]
G C G C
[Verse 1]
G C G C
Jacob’s heart bent with fear
G C D Am
Like a bow with death for its arrow
D G C G Am
In vain he searched for the final truth
G D G
To set his soul free of doubt
[Verse 2]
C G C
Over the mountains he walked
G C D Am D
With his head bent, searching for reasons
G C G C
Then he called out to god for help
G D Em
And climbed to the top of a hill
[Bridge]
A Em
Wind swept the sunlight through the wheat fields
A
In the orchard the nightingale sang
C F
While the plums that she broke with her brown beak
C D G
Tomorrow would turn in to songs
[Verse 3]
C G C
Then she flew up through the rain
G C D Am D
With the sun silver bright on her feathers
G C G C
Jacob put back his frowns and sighed
G Bm
And walked back down the hill
C Am
God doesn’t answer me and
G C G C G C D
And he never will______
