Verse 1
.
[A] There’s a cold wind that’s [D/bm] whistling, through the [D] lonesome [A]pines
I’m [A] just wondering [D/bm] where it’s been, and [D] what it left down the [A]line
It re [A] minds me of a [D/bm] love that once was [D] in this heart of [A] mine
There [A] ain’tnothing [D/bm]quite as lonely as a [D] love that’s left be [A] hind
.
Chorus
[A] Close your [E] eyes to[D]night,
and [A] set your [E]self [D]free
Oh, [A] close your [E]eyes to[D]night,
And [D] tell me what it is, that you [A] see
.
Verse 2
[A]the sunset this [D/bm] evening, marks the [D]end of the [A]day
it [A] makes me sad, ‘cause there’s [D/bm] nothing I can [D] do to make it [A]stay
It re[A] minds me of the [D/bm] night you left, I didn’t [D] know what to [A]say
there ain’t [A] nothing quite as lonely as a [D] love that slips a [A ]way

Please [A] close your [E] eyes to[D] night,

.
Verse 3
.
A There’s a train in the [D/bm]valley,that’s [D] rolling down the [A] track
So [A] hard to tell [D/bm] where it’s heading, or [D] if it might turn [A] back
It re [A] minds me of a [D/bm]love that’s lost and [D]slipped right through a [A]crack
Ya’ know [A] ain’t nothing [D/bm]quite as lonely, as a [D] love you can’t get [A] back

Am I [D] ever on your [A] mind ?
