A Restless Wind

Verse 1:
D Bm
A stone thrown from Heaven,skippin' 'cross the water
E A
Would disappear in ripples left behind
D Bm
A book with no cover,a rhyme with no reason
E A
Guess i'll always be one of the rovin' kind
Verse 2:
D Bm
'Cause movin's in my soul,i guess a gypsy boy got a hold
E A
Of somebody in my family long ago
D Bm
If some night while half asleep you hear the back door softly squeak
E A
You'll touch my empty pillow,then you'll know
Chorus:
Bm F#m
That restless wind,is calling me again
E A
Her warmin' hand is tuggin' at my soul
Bm F#m
Summer's gone,and winter's comin' on
E A
And i can't let it catch me standin' in the cold
Verse 3:
D Bm
Life made dice out of my bones and it won't leave me alone
E A
'Till it warms me up and takes another roll
D Bm
You can't grow sullen every time,so there ain't no use in cryin'
E A
It don't take an educated head to know
Verse 4:
D Bm
When i'm movin' down the road i won't need no overload
E A
Nor memories of you to weigh my mind
D Bm
And every step i wade will be one more i could take
E A
That put those memories further down the line
Chorus.
