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 

E|-------|
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
