Em                  Am                                   B7
Tonight I heard the wild goose cry, wingin' north in the lonely sky
Em                    Am                                       Em               Em
Tried to sleep but it was no use, 'cause I am a brother to the old wild goose

🎸 Verse 2:

Flip-flap hurry up take to the sky, wish I had wings so I could fly
Em                        Am              N.C.                    Em                Em
I hear the honker and the blue goose too, one went to Canada, the other just flew

Em                      Am                                      B7
My heart knows what the wild goose knows andI must go where the wild goose goes

Wild goose, brother goose which is best?  A wanderin' foot or a heart at rest?   (hoohoohoo)

Em                        Am                                 B7
The cabin is warm and the snow is deep and I got a woman who lies asleep.
Em                    Am                                               Em            Em
When she'll wake at tomorrow's dawn, she'll find poor critter that her man is gone

Em                    Am                                      B7
My woman was kind and true to me, she thinks she loves me the more fool she

She's gotta learn that it ain't no use, to love the brother of the old wild goose

Spring is comin' and the ice will break, I can't linger for a woman's sake
Em                       Am        N.C.                      Em              Em
She'll see a shadow pass overhead, she'll find my feathers beside my bed
