Windsong                             John Denver

    D    
The wind is the whisper of our mother the Earth
                                       G
the wind is the hand of our mother the sky

the wind watches over our struggles and pleasures
                                             D   A7
the wind is the goodess who first learned to fly 
    D
the wind is the bearer of bad and good tidings
                                     G
the weaver of darkner the bringer of dawn.

The wind brings the rain then builds us a rainbow
                                          C  
the wind is the singer who sang the first song.
    a                      D
The wind is the twister of anger and warning 
    G               e            C            a
the wind brings the fragnance of freshly mown hay
    C                     D          
the wind is the racer and wild stallion running
        C     G     a  G         D    b        A
and the sweet taste of love on a slow summer's day.

    D
The wind knows the songs of our cities and canyons
                                        G
the thunder of mountain the roar of the sea

the wind is the taker and giver of mornings.
                                      D       A7   
The wind is the symbol of all that is free.
   D     
So welcome the wind and the wisdom it offers
                                  G
follow her summons when she calls again.

In your heart and your spirit let the breezes surround you
                                          C
lift up your voice then and sing with the wind:
a                    D
La la la la la la la la la la la la la
C   G   a       G           D  b  A  A7 D
dee dee dee dee dee dee dee ooooo...
