E   B   A  E

[Verse]
                        B
Oh, The Laramie lights
             E
Sparkle like diamonds
                                    B
Like the stars fallen down from the night
                 C#m
They just kept a-shining
              A
And there's a runaway train
       B
On the high desert plain
  C#m                          A
Untamed and it won't be fenced in
         E                   B
And it's known by the name
               E
Of the Wyoming Wind

[Verse]
                         B
It'll rip through a man
                   E
Like a bullet, but faster
     E                   B
From Cody on down to Cheyenne
                   C#m
Clear through to Nebraska
       A
Oh, it howls and it haunts
     B
Goes where it wants
      C#m                          A
It'll taunt you and get under your skin
          E                  B
No, there ain't no shelter
                 E
From the Wyoming Wind

[Verse]
       C#m
As the tears you did weep
           A
Washed the blood from your cheeks
        E                    B
And the stars faded into the blue
         C#m
When you heard the wind blowing
        A
Did you feel more alone
          E                            B
Or did it sound like god whispering to you?

[Verse]
E
Wide open spaces
    B                      E
And nothing but time to forget
                         B
Anger flares up and then fades
                   C#m
like a cowboy cigarette
     A
Reservation ghosts
     B
Old split-rail fence posts
     C#m                  A
Just echoes remain of our sins
     E               B
They whine, whine, whine
               E
On the Wyoming Wind
          E               B
Yes, they whine, whine, whine
               E
On the Wyoming Wind
