THE WIND – Amos Lee
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Rozy
Super super easy song…listen for the cord progression. I’m sure the cord labels are
but you get the picture.
Tuning: Normal
Chords:
C x32010
C2 x30010
Am x02210
Am2 x02010
G 320033
G2 300033
Okay – Here’s the deal. Slow rhythmic strums during the intro/verse/bridge with a
single down-stroke accenting each cord change make this sound wicked on acoustic and match
vocal progression.
Play around with hammer pulls and such on the D string for C and G string for Am at the
of each to give it some life…actually, you really can’t go wrong if you can sing this properly.
Intro:
C C2 C Am Am2 Am x2

C C2 C Am Am2 Am
Saturday night and my head is spinning
C C2 C Am Am2 Am
I wonder whose heart I’ve been sinning for
G G2 G Am Am2 Am
A cold rain blows on my window
G G2 G Am (hold)
A soft scent gone from my pillow
One more step that I've been takin’
Yes and one more heart I don’t need no more breakin’ of
The red lights how they all burnin’ down the highway
I remember when the wind had blown my way
C G Am2(h)Am Am2 (h)Am
But the wind blew down my line
C G Am
Yeah the wind blew down my line
Bridge:
Same as Intro
The man on the street each day I’m passin’
A small bite to eat is all he’s been askin’ for
Cold stares is all he’s been yielding
Oh and now I know that empty feeling
C G Am2(h)Am Am2 (h)Am
Yeah the wind blew down my line
Yeah the wind blew down my line
C G Am
Yeah the wind blew down my line
Do your part...Quit Eating Fish!!!
