Widow In The Window

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               
While the widow in the window waits 
G
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              
Waiting for a ship that won't come 
Am
in
Am              G               G
Waiting for a tear to reach her chin
Continues after the ad
Am              G               
I'm knockin', but she will not let 
G
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                                
I could fill your days with 
Am   C   G
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.....
