When The Wild Wind Blows

Em   C   G   D
Em   C   G   D
Em   C   G   D
Am   C   D


[Chorus 1]
         Em              C        
Have you heard what they said on 
   G      D
the news today
         Em            C          
Have you heard what is coming to 
  G     D
us all?
         Em          C            
That the world as we know it will 
   G            D
be coming to an end
         Am              C      D
Have you heard, have you heard?


[Verse 1]
Em            G                C
He sees them in the distance 
                  G        D
when the darkened clouds roll
Em             G          
He could feel tension in the 
   C      G   D
atmosphere
Em            G               C 
He would look in the mirror, see
         G    D
 an old man now
Em       G                  
Does it matter if they survive 
C      G   D
somehow

Em                     G      
They said there's nothing can be 
     C             G   D
done about the situation
Em                  G             
They said there's nothing you can 
C      G   D
do at all
Em           G               C  
To sit and wait around for 
         G    D
something to occur
        Am               C   D
Did you know, did you know?

Em       G                C
As he stares across the garden 
             G          D
looking at the meadows
Em       G                C      
Wonders if they'll ever grow 
 G   D
again
Em        G             C        
The desperation of the situation 
  G          D
getting graver
Em       G               C      
Getting ready when the wild wind
    D
 blows


[Chorus 1]
         Em             C         
Have you seen what they said on 
  G      D
the news today
         Em              C        
Have you heard what they said 
     G     D
about us all?
       Em           C          
Do you know what is happening to 
       G            D
just every one of us
         Am              C      D
Have you heard, have you heard?


[Verse 2]
           Em      C             
There will be a catastrophe the 
G                D
like we've never seen

           Em             C       
There will be something that will 
           G    D
light the sky
          Em           C       
That the world as we know it, it 
        G            D
will never be the same
        Am            C     D
Did you know, did you know?
Em          G           C  
He carries everything into the 
             G      D
shelter not a fuss

Em       G                C      D
Getting ready when the moment comes
Em        G                C    
He has enough supplies to last 
           G      D
them for a year or two
Em       G                C      D
Good to have because you never know

Em            G               C 
They tell us nothing that we 
             G      D
don't already know about
Em           G                C 
They tell us nothing that is 
     D
real at all
Em          G               C   
They only fill us with the stuff
            D
 that they want
        Am            C     D
Did you know, did you know?

Em            G            
He's nearly finished with the 
    C            G      D
preparations for the day
Em           G              C    
He's getting tired; that'll do for 
  D
now
Em            G               C 
They are preparing for the very 
           G      D
worst to come to them
Em        G             C        
Getting ready when the wild wind 
 D
blows


[Bridge]
Em                             
He sees the picture on the wall, 
                 C
it's falling down
         G   D
Upside down
Em                             
He sees a teardrop from his wife 
                  C
roll down her face,
         G     D
Saying Grace

Em                                
Remember times they had, they 
                      C
flash right through his mind
        G    D
Left behind
Em                              
Of a lifetime spent together long 
   C
ago
          G  D
Will be gone


[Verse 3]
Em
They've been preparing for some 
weeks now
Em
For when the crucial moment comes
Em
To take their refuge in the shelter
C           D                    Em
Let them prepare for what will come

Em
They make a tea and sit there 
waiting
Em
They're in the shelter feeling snug
Em
Not long to wait for absolution
C             D                   Em
Don't make a fuss; just sit and wait


[Chorus 2]
         C             G          
Can't believe all the lying, all 
      D           Em
the screens are denying
          C          G           Em
That the moments of truth have begun
          C              G        
Can't you see it on the T.V.? 
      D                 Em
Don't believe them in the least bit
         C          D         
Now the days of our ending have 
   Em
begun


[Verse 4]
Em
Say a prayer when it's all over
Em
Survivors unite, all as one
Em
Got to try and help each other
C        D           Em
Got the will to overcome


[Chorus 2]
           C             G        
I can't believe all the lying, all
        D           Em
 the screens are denying
          C          G           Em
That the moments of truth have begun
          C              G        
Can't you see it on the T.V.? 
      D                 Em
Don't believe them in the least bit
         C          D          
Now the days of our ending have 
Em
begun


[Otro]
Em         G                    
When they found them, had their 
C              G           D
arms wrapped around each other
Em              G             C 
Their tins of poison laying near
             D
 by their clothes
Em             G          
The day they both mistook an 
     C                 G   D
earthquake for the fallout,
Em     G              C     
Just another when the wild wind 
     D
blows
