[D] [Em]
[E]
Like strikes [D] twelve and moon drops [C] burst out at you [Em] from behind the place
Like acid and oil out of [C] madman's face [E] his reason tends to [Em] fly away
[C] Like lesser birds [G] on the poor winds [C] like silver scripts in [B] May
[Em] Now the sand's [D] become a crust [Bm] most of you [Em] have gone away
Come Susie dear let's [D] take a walk just out there [Em] upon the beach
I know you'll soon be [D] married and you want to know [Em] where wind's come from
[C] Well it's never said it all on the map that Catherine [E] reads
Behind the clock [D] but there you know at [E] the four winds [Em] mark

[D] Hey!
[Em] Four winds at [C] the four winds [D] mark
Two doors front [Em] and window block
We'll [C] take you in [D] the other one [Em] just nearer there
Hey!

[D] Hey!
[Em] [C]
[D] Hey!
[Em] Hey let's relax [C]
the other one's [Em] up to black hair
[C] They turn the light on the light that [Em] never walks
Never [C]
[Em] walks on the light that [C] never, never walks
[D] Never walks, never walks
[Em]
[E]
Like strikes [D] twelve and moon drops burst out [E] at you from [Em] behind the place
Miss Karen nurse and [D] Susie dear would [D] find themselves at [Em] four winds bar
It's [C] the nexus of [G] the crisis and [C] the origin [B] of storms
Just a [D] place to hopelessly encounter [Em] time and then came me

These gravely tainted [C] minds who will surely prove us [Em] right
