G 
There's no stronger wind than the one that blows
C                        G
Down a lonesome railroad line
G
No prettier sight than looking back
     A7                D
On a town you left behind
G
There is nothin' that's as real
     C                 G
As a love that's in my mind
D
Close your eyes
                    C                  
I'll be here in the morning
D
Close your eyes
        C          Em   D
I'll be here for a while
G       
There's lots of things along the road
C                  G
I'd surely like to see
G            
I'd like to lean into the wind
    A7              D
And tell myself I'm free
G
But your softest whisper's louder
C                         G
Than the highway calls to me
D
Close your eyes
                    C                  
I'll be here in the morning
D
Close your eyes
        C          Em   D
I'll be here for a while

SOLO

G
All the mountains and the rivers
C                     G
And the valleys can't compare
G
To your blue lit dancin' eyes
A7              D
Yellow shining hair
G
I could never hit the open road
     C               G
And leave you lying  there
D
Close your eyes
                    C                  
I'll be here in the morning
D
Close your eyes
        C          Em   D
I'll be here for a while
G
Lay your head back easy, love,
C                 G
Close your cryin' eyes
G
I'll be layin' here beside you
         A7               D
When the sun comes on the rise
G
I'll stay as long as the cuckoo wails
C                        G
And the lonesome bluejay cries.
D
Close your eyes
                    C                  
I'll be here in the morning
D
Close your eyes
        C          Em   D
I'll be here for a while

Em D Em D over and fade out
