D5: xx0235
{Chorus}:
G G Am
Four strong winds that blow lonely
D G
Seven seas that run high
G Am D Dsus4 D5 D Dsus2 D
All those things that don't change come what may
G Am
But our good times are all gone
D G
And I'm bound for moving on
C Am D D
I'll look for you if I'm ever back this way
G Am D G
And If I get home before the snow flies, And if things are looking good
G Am D Dsus4 D5 D Dsus2 D
You could meet me if I sent you down the fare
G Am
Still I wish you'd change your mind
D G
If I ask you one more time
C Am D Dsus4 D5 D Dsus2 D
But we've been through that a hundred times before
{Chorus}

[Whistle solo]
