INTRO:
Riff G Cadd9
Riff G Cadd9
VERSE 1:
[Riff] Now and [G] then it keeps you running [G/F#]
[D] Never seems [Dsus2] to die
[Bm] Trail spent with fear
Not [C] enough living on the outside
[G] Never seem to get far enough [G/F#]
[D] Staying in be-[Dsus2]-tween the lines
Hold [Bm] on to what you can
Waiting [C] for the [G] end, not knowing [C] when
CHORUS:
May the [G] wind take your troubles away [G/F#]
May the [D] wind take your troubles [Dsus2] away
Both [C] feet on the floor
Two [G] hands on the wheel
May the [D] wind take your troubles [G] away
INSTRUMENTAL:
G G/F# D Dsus2
C G D G
BRIDGE:
[D] Trying to make it far enough
[C] To the next time [G] zone
Few and [D] far between past the [Dsus2] midnight hour
[C] Never feel [G] alone
You're [G/F#] really not [Em] alone
INSTRUMENTAL:
C G D G Cadd9
Riff G Cadd9
VERSE 2:
[Riff] [G] Switching it over to A.M. [G/F#]
[D] Searching for a [Dsus2] truer sound
Can't re-[Bm]-call the call letters
Steel gui-[C]-tar, I settle down
[G] Catching an all-night station [G/F#]
[D] Somewhere in Lou-[Dsus2]-isiana
[Bm] Sounds like 1963
But for [C] now [G] sounds like [C] heaven
REPEAT CHORUS:
FINALE:
May the [G] wind take your [G/F#] troubles a-[Em]-way
May the [C] wind
Take your troubles [G] away
INSTRUMENTAL:
G G/F# D Dsus2
C G D G
