INTRO:
  Riff  G  Cadd9
  Riff  G  Cadd9

VERSE 1:
  [Riff] Now and [G] then it keeps you running [G/F#]
  [D] Sometimes it [Dsus2] just won't die
  [Bm] Trail spent with fear
  Not [C] enough living on the outside

  [G] Never seem to get far enough [G/F#]
  [D] Staying in be-[Dsus2]-tween the lines
  Hold [Bm] on to what you can
  Waiting [C] for the [G] end, not knowing [C] when

CHORUS:
  May the [G] wind take your troubles away [G/F#]
  May the [D] wind take your troubles [Dsus2] away
  Both [C] feet on the floor
  Two [G] hands on the wheel
  May the [D] wind take your troubles [G] away

INSTRUMENTAL:
  G  G/F#  D  Dsus2
  C  G  D  G

BRIDGE:
  [D] Trying to make it far enough
  [C] To the next time [G] zone
  Few and [D] far between past the [Dsus2] midnight hour
  [C] Never feel [G] alone
  You're [G/F#] really not [Em] alone

INSTRUMENTAL:
  C  G  D  G  Cadd9
  Riff  G  Cadd9

VERSE 2:
  [Riff] [G] Switching it over to A.M. [G/F#]
  [D] Searching for a [Asus2] truer sound
  Can't re-[Bm]-call the call letters
  Steel gui-[C]-tar, I settle down

  [G] Catching an all-night station [G/F#]
  [D] Somewhere in Lou-[Dsus2]-isiana
  [Bm] Sounds like 1963
  But for [C] now [G] sounds like [C] heaven

REPEAT CHORUS:

FINALE:
  May the [G] wind take your [G/F#] troubles a-[Em]-way
  May the [C] wind
  Take your troubles [G] away

INSTRUMENTAL:
  G  G/F#  D  Dsus2
  C  G  D  G
