[Bb] [Dm]
[C] [Am]
[Bb] [Dm] Driving down [C] from the Highland line
[Am] We done some gigs [Bb] on the quiet in the times
[Dm] [C] Cruising from a Hamburg strip
[Am] But the taste of dust was all [Bb] still on our lips
[Dm] [F] [C] And [Am]
[Bb] [Dm] on the bus there [C] is a friend of mine
[Am] We go way back to [Bb] the scene of the crime
[Dm] Sit [C] up front and share a cigarette
[Am] And try to remember [Bb] what we try to forget
He [Dm] said, do you remember?
He [Bb] said, do you recall?
[C] I said, [Dm] yeah, I remember
[Am] Oh, [Bb] I remember it all
[C] Every [Dm] time that cold [Am] wind blows
[Gm] Every time [C] I hear the sound
[Dm] Late night train shunning down by the river
[Gm] [Bb] I remember [Am] Windy Town
[Dm] Come
[F] [D] so far and [C] we move so fast
Making [Bb] haste, see it all go [F] past
[Dm] Round the world and [C] round again
[Am] Up and [C] down on that [Bb] gravy train
[Dm] But every time that cold wind blows
[Gm] [Bb] Every time [C] I hear the sound
[Dm] East coast crosswinds on a cold, wet storm
[Bb] I remember [C] Windy Town

[Dm]
[C] [Dm]
[C] [Dm] corners [C] and the empty streets
[Am] The burning passion [Dm] and the cold, wet feet
Three tricky miles [C] home every night
[Am] Dodging from the shadows
[Bb] Underneath those amber lights
No
[Dm] car for [C] kissing and nowhere to go
Stepped inside each other [Bb] and I loved you so
[Dm] I held your face [Am] as you shivered in the rain
Girl, I'll always love [Bb] you and I'll love you again
Oh, every time, [Am] every time
[Bb] [Dm]
Every time that cold wind blows
[Bb] Every time I [C] hear the sound
[Dm]
Late night train shunning down by the river
