Verse 1
G
A boy heard the voice
of the whippoorwill one night
Am
and went out to find where he was
G
singing. He had to
walk quite a ways through a big field,
because the
song of the whippoorwill carried so
well in the wind he
Am
sound much closer then he really
Gm
C
was. And on the way
G
the boy found a well worn trail,
F#m
so he stayed on it for a
G
while. And sitting in the middle
Gm
of the trail was coyote,
G
and coyote was singing too.
He turned and saw the
boy and he said "Why
are you follow me?" The boy
was frightened and said "Well
the trail you made
happened to be a short
and easy way through this
F
Bb
field. Then coyote asked
F
"Well if your not following
me then why are you here?"
G
"Well I heard the beautiful
Am
song of the whippoorwill
G
and wanted to watch him
sing." "Well do you not think my
Am
songs are beautiful?",
G
said coyote. "Oh", said the boy,
"there good but I hear
you all the time. I much prefer
the songs of the
Am
G
whippoorwill" This made coyote
furious and he was
jealous of the whippoorwill's
song. He said "Listen to
my night song you might like
this one" And he pulled
back his head and yodeled
F
G
out a tune. The boy
covered his ears and politely said,
"Thank you for the
song, but I must be going now." "Well",
F
coyote said, "I
G
can show you a short cut to the whippoorwill boy,
and
where he sings is just over there."
Pointing his claw,
smiling out of the side of his mouth.
Bb
The boy paused,
Am
G
looked around, he knew the night
was passing fast so
he agreed to follow coyote.
But coyote's trail was
F
rough and rocky. And the boy
G
fell in quite a few
Am
C
gopher holes along the way. Coyote
G
turned around
Am
and laughed and he yelled
to the boy. "Were almost
G
C
there, hurry up." Coyote was at a
G
full trot but the boy
had just fallen again and hurt his
F
G
F
knee. And by the time
he got to the place where the
Am
whippoorwill had been
singing all night,
G
F
Am
it was morning. Whippoorwill was
A
Am
G
gone. And so was coyote,
in fact he could hear
C
G
coyote's songs in another field.
So the boy turned and
F
headed for home, covered with burrs,
G
Am
misq bites and a
F
G
skinned up knee. And it was
Am
many summers later
when the boy became a wiser
G
Am
man. And he realized,
there are no shortcuts
to find something you really
G
love. But there are many trails
G
G
in this life. So you must
stay true to your path,
and always keep and eye out
for coyote
