CATCH THE WIND (Donovan Leitch)
-------------------------------
[Actually in Eb; capo 3.]
[Each chord is one measure.]

[intro]
C C F F
In the chilly hours and minutes
C C F F
Of uncertainty, I want to be
C C F G C C G G
In the warm hold of your loving mind
C C F F
To feel you all around me
C C F F
And to take your hand along the sand
C C F G C F C C
Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind
When sundown pales the sky
I want to hide a while behind your smile
And everywhere I'd look, your eyes I'd find.
For me to love you now
Would be the sweetest thing, 'twould make me sing
Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind.
F F Em Em
Deedee dee dee, dee dee deedee
F F D7/F# D7/F#
Dee dee deedee, dee dee deedee
G G/E G/F G/E
Dee de deeee
When rain has hung the leaves with tears
I want you near to kill my fears
To help me to leave all my blues behind
For standing in your heart
Is where I want to be and long to be
Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind
Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind
