Widow in the Window
guitar tabs lyrics
Capo 2 (all chords relative to capo)
Am G Am
Waiting for the nightingale to sing
Am G G
Waiting for the harbor lights to dim
Am G Am
I've been on the outside lookin' in
Am G G
While the widow in the window waits for him.
C Am
But he won't be back
C Am
Can't you realize that?
C Am G
And he's laughing at your sorrow
-
Am G Am
Waiting for a ship that won't come in
Am G G
Waiting for a tear to reach her chin
Am G G
I'm knockin', but she will not let me in.
C Am
But he won't be back
C Am
Can't you realize that?
C Am G
And he's laughing at your sorrow
C Am
How can I explain, your love is all in vain
G
While he wastes your precious hours
G Am C G
I could fill your days with flowers.
C Am
How can I replace the smile upon a face
C G Am
Of a lover that I can never be
Am Ab7
How can I begin to make you love again
C Am G
And try to make you see
C Am
That he won't be back
C Am
Can't you realize that?
C Am G
And he's laughing at your sorrow
C Am
How can I explain, your love is all in vain
G
While he wastes your precious hours
G Am
I could fill your days with flowers.
Am C G
Flowers........
Am C G
Flowers.....
