Verse 1:

G   GdimAm7 D7
Day is end-ing
G     GdimD9   E7
Birds are wend-ing
A9          A7      D7
Back to the shelter of
G           A7        D7   D+
Each little nest they love

G     Gdim   Am7  D7
Night shades fall-ing
G    Gdim  D9   E7
Love birds call-ing
A9                      A7
What makes the world go 'round?
            D7   DdimD7
Nothing but love

Chorus:

                   G6
When Whippoorwills call
                G   E7
And ev-'ning is nigh
           A7 D7   G     G#dimD7
I hurry to my blue heaven

              G6
A turn to the right
               G    E7
A little white light
                 A7 D7   G     G7
Will lead you to my blue heaven

             C
You'll see a smiling face,
  E7           Am
A fireplace, a cozy room
  D7                 Am7
A little nest that's nestled
D7        G     Edim  Am7
Where the roses bloom

     D7         G6
Just Mollie and  me
               G    E7
And baby makes three
               A7 D7   G     EdimD7
We're happy in my blue heaven

Verse 2:

G    Gdim  Am7   D7
Moon-beams creep-ing
G     Gdim   D7    E7
Flow'-rs are sleep-ing
A9      A7      D7
Under a starlit way
G          A7    D7 D+
Waiting an-other day

G    GdimAm7  D7
Time for rest-ing
G     GdimD9   E7
Birds are nest-ing
A9                  A7
Resting their weary wings,
           D7   DdimD7
Tired from play
