R.E.M.

Continues after the ad
Key: 
C                    Dm
That's when Wendell Gee takes a tug

  G         G7         Em        
Upon the string that held the 

       G
line of trees

C                    Dm
Behind the house he lived in

          G             G7
He was reared to give respect

      Em                 G        F
But somewhere down the line he chose

[Chorus]

                   C    Em    F
So whistle as the wind blows

                C     G          C
Whistle as the wind blows, with me

[Verse 2]

C                     Dm
  He had a dream one night,

           G                G7
that the tree had lost its middle

       Em                G
So he built a trunk of chicken wire

C                   Dm
  to try to hold it up

         G         G7          
But the wire, the wire turned to 

   Em
lizard skin,

     G                 F
and when he climbed inside

                   C      Em   F
There wasn't even time to say

                    C   G  F
goodbye to Wendell Gee

[Chorus]

                   C    Em    F
So whistle as the wind blows

                C     G          C
Whistle as the wind blows, with me

[Verse 3]

C Dm G G7 Em G

C Dm G G7 Em G F

                   C      Em   F
There wasn't even time to say

                    C   G  F
goodbye to Wendell Gee

[Other]

                   C    Em    F
So whistle as the wind blows

                C     G          F
Whistle as the wind blows, with me

                  C  Em   F
If the wind were colours,

                       C    G  F
and if the air could speak

                     C    Em    F
Then whistle as the wind blows

                C     G          C
Whistle as the wind blows, with me
