THE WIND – Amos Lee
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Super super easy song…listen for the cord progression. I’m sure the cord labels are
but you get the picture.
Tuning: Normal
Chords:
x32010
x30010
x02210
Am2 x02010
320033
300033
Okay – Here’s the deal. Slow rhythmic strums during the intro/verse/bridge with a
single down-stroke accenting each cord change make this sound wicked on acoustic and match
vocal progression.
Play around with hammer pulls and such on the D string for C and G string for Am at the
of each to give it some life…actually, you really can’t go wrong if you can sing this properly.
Intro:
Am2 x2
Am2
Saturday night and my head is spinning
Am2
I wonder whose heart I’ve been sinning for
Am2
A cold rain blows on my window
(hold)
A soft scent gone from my pillow
One more step that I've been takin’
Yes and one more heart I don’t need no more breakin’ of
The red lights how they all burnin’ down the highway
I remember when the wind had blown my way
Am2() Am2 (h)
But the wind blew down my line
Yeah the wind blew down my line
Bridge:
Same as Intro
The man on the street each day I’m passin’
A small bite to eat is all he’s been askin’ for
Cold stares is all he’s been yielding
Oh and now I know that empty feeling
Am2() Am2 (h)
Yeah the wind blew down my line
Yeah the wind blew down my line
Yeah the wind blew down my line
Do your part...Quit Eating Fish!!!
