INTRO: Am Dm Am E Am Dm Am Em Am
Dark comes [Dm]down like a [Am]bird in [Dm]flight
[F]Most good [Dm]people have [F]gone to [Am]rest
But us poor [Dm]fools who [Am]wake at [Dm]night
[F]When we're [Dm]lonely, we [F]sing our [E7]best[C]
Listen and [G]hark, [C]out in the [G]dark
A [F]mockingbird [Dm]in a [F]tall [E7]tree[C]
Busts his [G]throat on a [Am]high sweet [G]note[F]
Nobody [Dm]knows he's [F]there but [E7]me
CHORUS:
He [Am]sings his [Dm]best when [Am]nobody's [E]listening
[F]Nobody's [Dm]listening
But [Am]me___[Dm]____[Am]__
Dark comes [Dm]down like a [Am]heron's [Dm]wing[F]
Honey[Dm]suckle is [F]in the [Am]air
That's when [Dm]I like to [Am]sit and [Dm]sing
[F]Nobody [Dm]listens, but [F]I don't [E7]care[C]
Out in a [G]swamp, by a [C]firefly [G]ramp
An [F]old frog [Dm]fiddles his [F]double [E7]bass
[C]Over the [G]hill, a [Am]whippoor[G]will[F]
Sings her [Dm]note from a [F]secret [E7]race
CHORUS:
She [Am]sings her [Dm]best when [Am]nobody's [E]listening
[F]Nobody's [Dm]listening
But [Am]me___[Dm]____[Am]__
