I'll Be Here in the Morning Chords by Townes Van Zandt

[Start]

[Verse]
E B E                     A                           
■ ■ ■ There's no stronger wind than the one that blows
                E            
Down a lonesome railroad line
                                       F#sus4          B      B7
No prettier sight than lookin' back on a town you left behind ■ 
E                               A                   E      
There is nothin' that's as real as a love that's in my mind
B                               A          
Close your eyes I'll be here in the morning
B          A                 C#m         B
Close your eyes I'll be here for a while ■
E                                     A               E     
There's lots of things along the road I'd surely like to see
                                               B       
I'd like to lean into the wind and tell myself I'm free
    E                                  A            E         
But your softest whisper's louder than the highways call to me
B                            A             
Close your eyes I'll be here in the morning
                             C#m        
Close your eyes I'll be here for a while
B E                                    A                 E      
■ All the mountains and the rivers and the valleys can't compare
                         F#7                           B           
To your blue lit dancin' flashin' eyes and your yellow shining hair
E                          A                  E          
I could never hit the open road and leave you lyin' there
B                               A          
Close your eyes I'll be here in the morning
B          A                 C#m         B
Close your eyes I'll be here for a while ■


[Chorus]
E                 A             
Now lay your head back easy love
           E          
Close your cryin' eyes
                                                         B   
I'll be layin' here beside you when the sun comes on the rise
E                               A                      E            
I'll stay as long as the cuckoo wails and the lonesome bluejay cries
B                               A          
Close your eyes I'll be here in the morning
                                         C#m
Close your eyes I'll be here for a while ■  
           B7                A             
Close your eyes I'll be here in the morning
B          A                             C#m
Close your eyes I'll be here for a while ■
