[Intro]
C Am F G
C
I envy the wind
Am
That whispers in your ear
F
That howls through the winter
G
That freezes your fingers
C
That moves through your hair
Am
And cracks your lips
F G
That chills you to the bone
C
I envy the wind
C
I envy the rain
Am
That falls on your face
F
That wets your eyelashes
G
That dampens your skin
C
That touches your tongue
Am
That soaks through your shirt
F G
And drips down your back
C
I envy the rain
C
I envy the sun
Am
That brightens your summer
F
That warms your body
G
And holds you in her heat
C
That makes your days longer
Am
That makes you hot
F G
That makes you sweat
C
I envy the sun
C
I envy the wind
Am
I envy the rain
F G
I envy the sun
C
I envy the wind
