Intro: (A) (Em7) (A) (Em7) 

(A) Lonely, can't lay a finger (Em7) on me
When you're in my (A) arms
And my demons are finally lost be(Em7)hind me
Can't even find me in the (A) dark
Your (D) lips are like a kiss of sunshine
In the pouring down (A) rain
And when you (Em7) whisper my name I hear (D) anything
But Whippoorwills and (A) freight trains

  I don't (A) miss that midnight whistle waking (D) me
  And taking me back (G) through the (A) pain
  And I don't hear that lonesome cry
  Outside my (D) window every night
  Driving (G) me (A) insane
  Ain't no (Em7) fighting back tears
  Every (D) time I hear
  Whippoorwills and (A) freight trains

(A) (Em7) (A) 

(A) Silence is like a bullet from a (Em7) rifle
Aimed straight at my (A) heart
Triggered by those echoes in the (Em7) distance
That used to hit me so (A) hard
But when you (D) lie by my side in peaceful dreams
Moonlight on your (A) face
Girl, I can (Em7) drift away and sleep (D) safe
From Whippoorwills and (A) freight trains

  I don't (A) miss that midnight whistle waking (D) me
  And taking me back (G) through the (A) pain
  And I don't hear that lonesome cry
  Outside my (D) window every night
  Driving (G) me (A) insane
  Ain't no (Em7) fighting back tears
  Every (D) time I hear
  Whippoorwills and (A) freight trains


Solo

  I don't (A) miss that midnight whistle wa(G)king (D) me
  And taking me back (G) through the (A) pain
  And I don't hear that lonesome cry
  Out(G)side my (D) window every night
  Driving (G) me (A) insane
  Ain't no (G) fighting back tears
  Every (D) time I hear
  Whippoorwills and (A) freight trains (G) (Em7)
  Whippoorwills and (A) freight trains (G) (Em7)
  I hate Whippoorwills and (A) freight trains (Em7) (A)
