What Color Is The Wind
By Charlie Landsborough
Capo 1
A D
What colour is the wind, Daddy
D A D
Is it yellow, red or blue
F#m
When he's playing with my hair, Daddy
E
Does he do the same to you
D
When he's dying does his colour fade
A F#m
Is a gentle breeze a lighter shade
E
Just like his friend the sea
A
The wind feels blue to me
-------
When the blackbird starts to sing, Daddy
Do the flowers hear him, too
When he's pouring out his heart, Daddy
Tell me, what do roses do
Do they cast their scent upon the air
And is fragrance just a rose in prayer
Giving thanks to God above
For the blackbird's song of love
Chorus:
D A
Blow, wind, blow
E A
Wild and free
D A
My Daddy says
E D A
You're a lot like me
E
I know each colour
D A
Its shape and size
E
I've seen them all
A
With my Daddy's eyes
I know that grass is green, Daddy
I've touched it with my toes
And snow is purest white, Daddy
I've felt it with my nose
But my favourite colour has to be
The colour of your love for me
And Daddy, I've been told
That love is always gold
Chorus
My Daddy says
You're a lot like me
What colour is the wind
