THAT OL' WIND by Garth Brooks transcription by:
(Leigh Reynolds/Garth Brooks) Daniel Guenther
--------------------------------------------------------------
INTRO: E C#m A B7 E
E
She dropped her boy at school on time
C#m
One less worry on her mind
A E B
Now it's off to work and on the radio
E
Comes an old familiar song
C#m
And then the D.J.'s voice comes on
A B7 E
And says he's back in town tonight for one last show
E
Her eyes well up with tears
C#m
God could it be it's been ten years
A E B
Since that Autumn night outside the county fair
E
When two strangers shared a night
C#m
And in the darkness found a light
A B7 E
That to this day is still alive and burning there
C#m A B
He asked her twice to come along
C#m A B
They said good-bye at the break of dawn
E
'Cause you can't hold back the wind
C#m
If it's meant to be again
A B7 E
Then someday he'll find his way back to her arms
BREAK: A B E
E
The marquee misspelled his name
C#m
And not too many people came
A E B
But that didn't matter to them
E
They laughed and loved all through the night
C#m
And as they faced the morning light
A B7 E
They found themselves standing there again
C#m A B
And he asked her twice to come along
C#m A B
They said good-bye at the break of dawn
E
As his bus left out she cried
C#m
With him standing by her side
A B7 E
That ol' wind had once again found its way home
INSTRUMENTAL BREAK: E C#m A E B
E C#m A B7 E
C#m A E
Someday he'll tell her about the money he hid
C#m A E B
And someday she'll tell him that the boy is his kid
E
For right now they're both in love
C#m
The only thing they're thinkin' of
A B7 E
Is that they're finally where their hearts have always been
ENDING: REPEAT INSTRUMENTAL BREAK 3 TIMES AND FADE OUT
