[Verse 1]
Eb Bb F
May you have a roof above your head
Eb Bb F Gm
May your house be home to you, your table filled with bread
Eb Bb Dm Gm
May you have a soft and silent sleep, all through the night
Eb Bb F
May your lover in your arms be your delight
[Verse 2]
Eb Bb F
May you have enough to go around
Eb Bb F Gm
May you have the wealth to know what you can live without
Eb Bb Dm Gm
May you have a full days work to do, and time to spend
Eb Bb F
With all your children’s kin ‘till your life’s end
[Chorus]
Bb Eb
A wall for the wind
Gm F
And a fire for the cold
Bb Eb
A coat for the rain
Gm F
And a friend for the road
Bb Eb
A wall for the wind
Gm F
And a fire for the cold
Bb Eb
A coat for the rain
Gm F
And a friend for the road
[Verse 3]
Eb Bb F
May you be at peace with who you are
Eb Bb F Gm
And may you laugh and cry with those around you near and far
Eb Bb Dm Gm
May your heart be found by love that will survive
Eb Bb F
In all the changing seasons of your life
[Chorus]
Bb Eb
A wall for the wind
Gm F
And a fire for the cold
Bb Eb
A coat for the rain
Gm F
And a friend for the road
Bb Eb
A wall for the wind
Gm F
And a fire for the cold
Bb Eb
A coat for the rain
Gm F
And a friend for the road
[Bridge]
Gm F
I’ll protect you from the wind and I will find a shelter
Bb F
In the night I’ll light a fire so you won’t get cold
Gm F
In the dark I’ll be around you like a guardian angel
Bb F
I’ll be there, cause together we will walk the road
[Chorus]
Bb Eb
A wall for the wind
Gm F
And a fire for the cold
Bb Eb
A coat for the rain
Gm F
And a friend for the road
Bb Eb
A wall for the wind
Gm F
And a fire for the cold
Bb Eb
A coat for the rain
Gm F
And a friend for the road
