The Wind Whispers
View chords used in this chart
Am
I can see a bright light up the hill there
G
Way beyond my wishful reach
C/G Fmaj7
And I know my cousin lives there
D7sus2 G
And he looks a lot like me
Am
For years as I watch him closely, he watches back
G
And neither can tell what's on the other's mind
C/G Fmaj7
Is he about to come and get me
D7sus2 G
And stab a knife into my back
C/G G
And it's getting darker now
G/F# F
And the light is dimming out
Am F
But the wind whispers love
Am G
Yeah the wind whispers love
Am F
But the wind whispers love
G C/G
Yeah the wind whispers love
C/G Gsus4/B Am
Am
Mama see the swirly mountains sigh there
G
How in my dreams I climbed them high
C/G Fmaj7
To the land of milk and honey
D7sus2 G
That the people have turned to mud
Am
I know a creek that runs from way up there
G
Wish it could tell me the sights and sounds it saw
C/G F
Because for water there are no borders
D7sus2 G
Or so I thought before I dried
C/G G
And it's getting darker now
G/F# F
And the light is dimming out
Am F
But the wind whispers love
Am G
Yeah the wind whispers love
Am F
But the wind whispers love
G Am
Yeah the wind whispers love

Em Fmaj7
When all is worn out and gone
Em
I'll think about a song
F
That echoes through fire and light
C Dm
Above the changing sky
G
A lullaby
G/F# Em
Bringing a new dawn to us all
Fmaj7
We'll raise a cup to life
Em
But now we're all so tired
F
And at the far end of the road
C Dm
We wish to sing our sons
G
A lullaby
C/G G
And it's getting darker now
G/F# F
And the light is dimming out
Am F
But the wind whispers love
Am G
Yeah the wind whispers love

But the wind whispers love
