Lyrics:

Verse 1 [Am – G – F – C]
There’s a wild wind whippin’, down the lonely road [Am – G]
A heartache rippin’, carrying a heavy load [F – C]
I’ve got my old guitar, and these boots of mine [Am – G]
And the melody, of a love left behind [F – C]

Chorus [Dm – E – Am – Em]
Wild wind, carry me home [Dm – E]
To a place where I can belong [Am – Em]
Wild wind, play me a song [Dm – E]
One that can heal, what’s torn and gone [Am – Em]

Verse 2 [Am – G – F – C]
The moon’s a lantern, in the dark southern night [Am – G]
Lost and yearning, for her sweet smile’s light [F – C]
But the wild wind, carries my blues away [Am – G]
In its swirling dance, I find my way [F – C]

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge [F – G – C – Am]
Under the starry quilt, I make my bed [F – G]
With the wild wind’s song, echoing in my head [C – Am]

(Repeat Chorus)
