(Title: Voices on the Wind) (Performed by Little Feat) (Written by Paul Barrere, Bill Payne, Craig Fuller, and Fred Tackett) (on the cd Let It Roll)
DGA Standing by the ocean A Watch it tear away the shore DGA Glide out upon the desert A The horizon is the door DGA And though your voice is shouting A Above the wind it can't be heard DGA Drop all sense of reason A It's there you'll find your worth FG And though you are surrounded CF Feeling quite alone DmA#CGD There's A light to guide you home
(chorus) A If you stand with your face D To the wind off the water A At the point of land's end G Where the ocean begins A Look to the memory D Of the ones gone before AD The light and the meaning of EAGD The Voices on the Wind.
Searching for safe passage As you knock on every door You still can hear the howling Of the mongrel dogs of war You call out for some comfort Seeking shelter from the night A raging rain's upon you Feeling tired of the fight And though you are surrounded Feeling quite alone There's a light to guide you home
(chorus)
Their words carry over water And fall back down to earth What follows is the silence As you contemplate their worth A vision comes before you But the meaning's still unclear Standing at the threshold As you watch it disappear And though you are surrounded Feeling quite alone There's a light to guide you home
(chorus)
