Version 1 Version 2 Version 3[Verse 1] C F C There's no stronger wind than the one that blows down a lonesome railroad line G7 No prettier sight than lookin' back at a town you left behind C F C But there's nothin' that's as real as the love that's in my mind. G7 F Close Your Eyes I'll Be Here In The Mornin' G7 F Am G7 Close your eyes I'll be here for awhile. [Verse 2] There's lots of things along the road I'd surely like to see I'd like to lean into the wind and tell myself I'm free But your softest whispers louder than the highway's call to me Close Your Eyes I'll Be Here In The Mornin' Close your eyes I'll be here for awhile. [Verse 3] All the mountains and the rivers and the valleys can't compare To your bluely dancin' eyes and yellow shinin' hair I could never hit the open road and leave you lyin' there Close Your Eyes I'll Be Here In The Mornin' Close your eyes I'll be here for awhile. [Verse 4] Aw lay your head back easy love and close your cryin' eyes I'll be layin' here beside you when the sun comes on the rise And I'll stay as long as the cuckoo wails and the lonesome Blue Jay cries. Close Your Eyes I'll Be Here In The Mornin' Close your eyes I'll be here for awhile.
