Intro
G C D G

G
There was a howl that night
             C
A howling like they never heard before
 D                C      D
A cry so loud old granddad almost hit the door
      G                      C
He said, "I love this child as much as any one that she ever bore,
   D                   G
But I thank the Lord we won't be having any more."

                      C
Then the baby heard the sweetest sound he'd ever heard
  D               C     D
In tones so beautiful he hung on every word
      G                        C
She sang, "Hush, my love, granny's little dove is going to take to the sky."
    D                    G
It was on such a night he learned to fly like a bird.

    C                    G
Now the years have passed and memories come and go
  C                    D  D7
He hears that voice that rocked him gently so
 G                           C
A calm will descend and there's peace at the end of the darkest night
  D                  G
Sometimes I cry, sometimes I fly like a bird.

Well, the rain's gonna fall and the wind may blow on the darkest night

Sometimes I cry, sometimes I fly like a bird.
