G
There was a howl that night
G C
A howling like they'd never heard before
D D7 C D
A cry so loud old granddad almost hit the door
D G
He said "I love this child
G C
As much as any one that she ever bore
D D7 G
But I thank the Lord we won't be having any more"
G
Then the baby heard
G C
The sweetest sound he'd ever heard
D D7
In tones so beautiful
C D
He hung on every word
G
She sang "Hush my love
G C
Granny's little dove is gonna take to the sky"
D D7 G
It was on such a night he learned to fly like a bird
G C
Now the years have passed
G
And memories come and go
C
He hears that voice
C D D7
That rocked him gently so
G
A calm will descend And there's peace at the end
C
Of the darkest night
D D7
Sometimes I cry
G
Sometimes I fly like a bird
(Accordion Break)
G C
Now the years have passed
G
And memories come and go
C
He hears that voice
C D D7
That rocked him gently so
G
Well the rains gonna fall And the winds may blow
C
On the darkest night
D D7
Sometimes I cry
G
Sometimes I fly like a bird
G
A calm will descend And there's peace at the end
C
Of the darkest night
D D7
Sometimes I cry
G
Sometimes I fly like a bird
(End with accordion)
