Slim Whitman - The Wayward Wind 1956 chords
Start Jamming...
In a lonely shack by a railroad track I spent my younger days
And I guess the sound of the awkward bow Made me [D] a slave to my [G] wandering ways
Oh, the wayward wind is the restless [C] wind [Cm] A restless [G] wind that yearns [Am] to warm [D]
[Dm] us more
[G] The next [C] of kin, [Cm] the next [G] of kin [Am] To [D] the wayward [G] wind
[D]
[G]
I met a girl in a border town I vowed we'd never part
Though I tried my best to settle down Now [D] I'm alone with a [G] broken heart
Oh, the wayward wind is the restless [C] wind
[Cm] A restless [G] wind that yearns [Am] to warm
[D] [Dm] us more
[G] The next [C] of kin,
[Cm] the next [G] of kin [D] To the [G] wayward wind
