[Verse 1]
Em G
Ever since the days of old
D A
Men have searched for wealth untold
Em G
They dig for silver and they dig for gold
D A
And they leave the empty holes
Em G
And way down south in the Everglades
D A
Where the black water rolls and the sawgrass sways
Em G
The eagles fly and the otters play
D A
In the land of the Seminole
[Chorus]
Em G
So blow, blow Seminole wind
D A
Blow like you're never gonna blow again
Em G
I'm calling to you like a long lost friend
D A
Cause I know who you are
Em G
And blow, blow from the Okeechobee
D A
All the way up to Micanopy
Em G
Blow across the land of the Seminole
D A
The alligator and the gar
[Interlude]
Em G D A Em G D A
[Verse 2]
Em G
Progress came and took its toll
D A
And in the name of flood control
Em G
They made they plans to drain the land
D A
Now the glades is going dry
Em G
And last time I walked in the swamp
D A
I stood upon a cypress stump
Em G
I listened close and I heard the ghost
D A
Of Osceola crying
[Chorus]
Em G
So blow, blow Seminole wind
D A
Blow like you're never gonna blow again
Em G
I'm calling to you like a long lost friend
D A
Cause I know who you are
Em G
And blow, blow from the Okeechobee
D A
All the way up to Micanopy
Em G
Blow across the land of the Seminole
D A
The alligator and the gar

And blow, blow from the Okeechobee
D A
All the way up to Micanopy

Blow across the land of the Seminole

The alligator and the gar

Blow, blow Seminole wind

Blow like you're never gonna blow again

Blow like you're never, ever, ever gonna blow again
