E7       A          A7

E7       A                A7    
Then my heart fills with 
      D            B7
gladness when I hear the trill

          E7   D9       E7    
Of those birds in the treetops
Bm7/5- A            D9    A
 on   Mock - in' - bird Hill


Repeat Refrain:

E7         A           A7       
When it's late in the evenin' I 
D            B7
climb up the hill

       E7      D9  E7     
And survey all my kingdom while 
Bm7/5-  A    D9       A
everything's still

E7   A          A7          D  
Only me and the sky and an old 
         B7
whippoorwill

        E7    D9     E7      
Singing songs in the twilight
Bm7/5- A           D9    A
 on  Mock - in' - bird Hill

One verson of the lyrics which I 
found sometime ago
on the internet lists this as a 
third verse which Patti
Page *may* have included on one or 
more of her recordings:

E7     A             A7          
Got a three cornered plow and an 
D        B7
acre to till

      E7       D9  E7   Bm7/5-  
And a mule that I bought for a 
A      D9   A
ten dollar bill

E7         A           A7        
There's a tumble-down shack and a
  D         B7
 rusty old mill,

         E7      D9    E7  
But it's my home sweet home
Bm7/5-     A            D9   A
  up  on Mock - in' - bird Hill.
