The night winds whisper softly why did you do her wrong
F C
In the distance there's a coyote howl sounds like his love is gone
C7 F
My heart is chilled by a whippoorwill as the train pulls out with you
C G7 C
Listen close and you can almost hear the blues
F C
You can almost hear the blues in the rain that's pouring down
F C G7
That lovely crackle to the fire seems to have a lonesome sound
C C7 F
As I walk the time away just listen to my shoes
C G7 C
Listen close and you can almost hear the blues
G7
The rumble of the river flowing by my cabin door
F C
I could swear I heard it tell me son she won't be back no more
C7 F
As the night winds whine a coyote pines my heart cries out for you
C G7 C
Listen close and you can almost hear the blues
F C
You can almost hear the blues in the rain that's pouring down
F C G7
That lovely crackle to the fire seems to have a lonesome sound
C C7 F
As I walk the time away just listen to my shoes
C G7 C
Listen close and you can almost hear the blues
G7 C
Listen close and you can almost hear the blues
