Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Well it rained last night

 and the stars shone bright

 and way off yonder

 we heard the whippoorwill.

 At the first light of dawn

 we heard that he was gone.

 Our hearts was empty

 and our eyes was filled.

Open the gates

welcome him in.

 There's a brand new angel,

 a brand new angel with old idea.

In music we heard

 all the songs of the birds.

 And he said that some songs

 is like clear fall days.

 But he played his last refrain

 Oh but the song will remain.

 Though he's put his bow down

 And closed his case.

Open the gates

welcome him in.

 There's a brand new angel,

 a brand new angel with old violin.
