Intro: Am  Dm  Am  E  Am  Dm  Am  Em  Am  

           Dm          Am      Dm 
Dark comes down like a bird in flight 
F         Dm          F       Am 
Most good people have gone to rest 
            Dm        Am      Dm 
But us poor fools who wake at night 
F          Dm         F        E7     C 
When we're lonely, we sing our best 


           G     C          G 
Listen and hark, out in the dark 
  F           Dm   F    E7      C 
A mockingbird in a tall tree 
          G           Am         G     F 
Busts his throat on a high sweet note 
       Dm         F         E7   
Nobody knows he's there but me
