I remember as a child on a dark and stormy night 
Dm                              C 
I heard the screen door slam and I was overcome with fright 
F                         C 
So afraid that something bad was trying to get in 
     Am              Dm             G 
Then mama came to comfort me and said, 
 

G            F                  C 
It's only the wind, and nothing more 
      Am         C       Am             G 
Not the end of the world knocking at the door 
            F            C        F                 G            Am 
So close your eyes and dream again, believe me, it's only the wind  
 
 
F                          C 
Well everytime I've had to face a bitter storm of life, 
Dm                        C 
Those words of comfort were my shelter in the night 
    F                        C 
But tonight I don't believe I'm able to pretend 
    Am                  Dm       G                Am 
The storm that you and I are up against is only the wind.
