Whistling Away the Dark Henry Mancini
[Em]Often I t[B+]hink this [Em7]sad, old [Em6]world
Is w[Em]his - tl - ing[Am/F#] in the [B7]dark;
[B7]Just like a c[B7/6]hild, who, [Cdim]late from [B7]school,
Cdim(III) B7 Em
Walks bravely home through the park.
To [Am]keep their [Am7]spir [(Am6)]- its s[Em]oaring,
[Am/F#]And keep the [B7]night at [Em]bay,
N[Am]either quite[Am7] knowing which [Am7/G]way they are [Am/F#]going,
They [B7]sing the [Am7]shadows a[B7]way.
[Em]Often I t[B+]hink my [Em7]poor, old [Em6]heart
Has [Em]gi - ven[Am/F#] up for g[B7]ood;
[B7]And then I[B7/6] see a [Cdim]brave new [B7]face,
Cdim(III) B7 Em
I glimpse some new neigh - bor - hood.
So [Am]walk me back [Am7]home,[(Am6)] my [Em]dar - ling,
[Am/F#]Tell me dreams [B7]really come [Em]true,
[Am]Whistling, [Am/F#] wh[Em]istling, [B+] he[B7]re in the d[Am7]ark with y[Em]ou,[B+]
[Am]Whistling,[Am/F#] wh[Em]istling, [B+] h[B7]ere in the [Cdim]dark with [Em]you.
