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
Am Dm Am E
He sings his best when nobody's listening
F Dm
Nobody's listening
Dm Am Dm F
Dark comes down like a heron's wing
Dm F Am
Honeysuckle is in the air
Dm Am Dm
That's when I like to sit and sing
F Dm F E7 C
Nobody listens, but I don't care
G C G
Out in a swamp, by a firefly ramp
F Dm F E7
An old frog fiddles his double bass
C G Am G F
Over the hill, a whippoorwill
Dm F E7
Sings her note from a secret race
Am Dm Am E
She sings her best when nobody's listening
F Dm
Nobody's listening
Am Dm Am E
We sing our best when nobody's listening
F Dm
Nobody's listening
