@SONG:THE WAYWARD WIND

Intro:  Ab-F-Ab-F
         F
In the lonely shack by the railroad track

I spent my younger days

And I guess the sound of the outward bound
            C                    F
Made me a slave to my wanderin' ways

                                   Bb
And the wayward wind is a restless wind
            F                   C
A restless wind that yearns to wander
           F                B   Bbm  (b-flat minor=Bbm)
And I was born the next of kin
             F C               F
The next of kin to the wayward wind

Oh, I met him down
in the border town
He vowed we'd never part
Though he tried his best to settle down
Now I'm all alone with a broken heart

And the wayward wind is a restless wind
A restless wind that yearns to wander
And I was born the next of kin
The next of kin to the wayward wind

(repeat chorus)
