Northern wind (video)

D - G - D

G D A

1. There is a wind, my Billy, and it’s awful strong,

G D G

come for you and anyone who’s helped you along.

A G

But I want to live, live, live and let the stars shine bright,

D A - F#m

yes, I want to live, live, live and let it on alright.

G D

And when that bird sings from over that silver wall,

A G

I don’t want to fight it, Billy, ’cause I want to go.

C D C

There’s a northern wind, Billy, blowing up a southern change,

D C D F

and a northern wind, Billy, making me feel kind of strange.

G F G F

There’s a northern wind, Billy, blowing up a southern change,

G F G A

and a northern wind, Billy, making me feel kind of strange.

G D A

2. And when this gun goes, everything I want to say,

G D G

not for you, but for anyone who takes it away.

A G

Let it fill this life, life, life until there’s nothing left,

D A - F#m

let it kill his wife, wife, wife until he goes to bed.

G D

And when that bird sings from over that silver wall,

A G

I don’t want to fight it, Billy, ’cause I want to go.
