F# B F#
There's no stronger wind than the one that blows down a lonesome railroad line.
F# G#m C#
There's no prettier sight than lookin' back on a town you've left behind.
F# B F#
There's nothing that's as real as the love that's in my mind.
C# B
Close your eyes I'll be here in the mornin',
C# G#m D#m
Close your eyes I'll be here for a while.
F# B F#
There's lots of things a-lookin' back I'd surely like to see.
F# G#m C#
I'd like to lean into the wind and tell myself I'm free
F# B F#
But your softest whispers louder than the highway's call to me
C# B
Close your eyes I'll be here in the mornin',
C# G#m D#m
Close your eyes I'll be here for a while.
F# B F#
All the mountains and the rivers and the valleys can't compare
F# G#m C#
To your bluely dancin' eyes and yellow shinin' hair
F# B F#
I could never hit the open road and leave you lyin' there
C# B
Close your eyes I'll be here in the mornin',
C# G#m D#m
Close your eyes I'll be here for a while.
F# B F#
Aw lay your head back easy love and close your cryin' eyes
F# G#m C#
I'll be layin' here beside you when the sun comes on the rise
F# G#m C#
And I'll stay as long as the cuckoo wails and the lonesome Blue Jay cries.
C# B
Close your eyes I'll be here in the mornin',
C# G#m D#m
Close your eyes I'll be here for a while.
