Nighthawk

 
A         A       D             A 
Late last night I walked by the river 
    A        A          E 
The moon was hangin' so high 
A         A      D       A 
Thinkin' about a love forgotten 
A        A         E        A   A7 
Out underneath the lonesome sky 
 

 
D    D 
Nighthawk 
A           A 
Just an old memory 
A      A             E    E 
Flyin' circles in my mind 
  A        A 
I hear you call 
    D       A 
But I can't answer 
A         A       E       A 
Why'd you have to say goodbye

Remember dear 
      D            A 
Those happy days together 
A            A           E     E 
We'd build a fire on the shore 
     A     A         D        A 
When I was yours and you were mine 
A  A         E       A   A7 
We could not ask for more

Nighthawk 
A           A 
Just an old memory 
A      A             E    E 
Flyin' circles in my mind 
  A        A 
I hear you call 
    D       A 
But I can't answer 
A         A       E       A 
Why'd you have to say goodbye

A       A       D        A 
All day long my mind's untroubled 
A            A   E    E 
Up 'til that eventide 
     A      A      D           A 
Then all at once I find myself sinkin' 
A      A        E         A    A7 
Victim of those ties that bind

Nighthawk

Just an old memory 
A      A             E    E 
Flyin' circles in my mind 
  A        A 
I hear you call 
    D       A 
But I can't answer 
A         A       E       A 
Why'd you have to say goodbye
