SINGIN' CALL- Stephen Stills

TUNING: D5 A5 D5 D5 A5 D5 (or E5 B5 E5 E5 B5 E5 )

E5 E5 E5 E5
E5                       E5
Listen to the sound of the night bird singin'
  E5          E5
I wonder who he calls
     E5                   E5
My fingers hurt so bad it's got me grinnin'
        E5              E5
And I wonder can I do it all
E5                           E5
Hit a stretch of rapids in the rushing ragin' river
E5                         E5
Looking out for boulders and falls
E5                        E5
A woman she watches from the top of the canyon
E5                     E5
Hopin' we don't drown us all

CHORUS:
B5                  A5
Help me now, I got to slow down
          B5   E5
Hear my singin' call

Hurt myself bad on a run through the desert
Threw a shoe and took a bad fall
Long for the peace that the ancients bring me
Murmur of the lowlands shut my jaw
CHORUS

Everyone knows there's a price for the askin'
Some people buy themselves a doll
Help me sweet Jesus
I'm weary from the journey
I need to tell my brothers what I saw
CHORUS

NOTE: On the picking pattern, any given second string note can be
replaced by a first string note.  It is the sequence of first string
notes that makes this picking pattern challenging and interesting.
Listen to the record closely to hear this- the first string note is
relatively easy to pick out.
