Wild Winds

Am              C        F
I was swallowed by all I carried in me
Am              C                  F
Wondering in the night where this old road would lead
Dm                               G                  C    Am/G  Em  Am/G
And if the wild wind would blow you far from me, oh no

Am                      C     F
The stars began to fade as the wind shook the trees
Am                   C            F
And all that we had made seemed to rattle all through me
Dm                               G                C     Am/G  Em  Am/G
Unravelling the thread we'd sewn so carefully, oh no
F             G
One day we'll find our way

F               G
Oh, hold close, I can feel it
                     F       G   C  Am/G  Em  Am/G
We're falling like a stone, oh

Am                    C                   Am
In winter's hand our fate was held as it blew our way
Am                    C                   Am
What once had lit our eyes was growing dimmer with each day
Dm                               G                     F
Knowing fear would only break us more if we stayed, oh no

F            G
Hold close, I can feel it
                     F
We're falling like a stone, oh
F
And oh I know, though my heart would
G                                    F      Em  F
Sail these wild winds, no I'm letting go

Dm          G             Em          F
And in the end, when our days are all spent
Dm                     G
And the bright fire is gone
          Em        F
I'd not give it all up
                           G                C      Am/G  Em  Am/G  C
No, I'll hold you as you're drifting off to sleep
