    E (022100@1)      E7 (020130@1)       Amwherever (x02210@1)the warm winds blew

AmAnd (x02210@1)the falcon was a pretty bird 
    F (133211@1)       G (320003@1)    C (x32010@1) EHer (022100@1)voice was always still,

   E (022100@1)       E7 (020130@1)    AmWe (x02210@1)teach her not to feel

[Repeat Intro]

AmGo (x02210@1)build you a log cabin 
     F (133211@1)  G (320003@1)    C (x32010@1) Eon (022100@1)a mountain so high,

But someday she might turn around 
    E (022100@1)      E7 (020130@1)      Amand (x02210@1)maul the hand that feeds

AmYour (x02210@1)hours might be numbered 
     F (133211@1)       G (320003@1)  C (x32010@1)   E (022100@1)  
Your end might come someday

-----| Notes |------------------------------

On Mimi and Richard Farina's "Celebration For A Grey Day" album the actual 
recording is slightly sped up. 
 To match the recording use standard tuning but tune it slightly sharp with a capo 
on the fourth fret. 
 Alternatively, you could tune it slightly flat with a capo on the fifth fret.
