I Turned My Face Into The Wind

INTRO: Am G F D E B Em B E

  Bm                    Am
I wandered far onto the lonely moors
Bm                                
Sparse coarse tufts of grass 
          Am
reached out to trip me
     C                             
And above my head the leaden clouds
      D
 hung low
                             Em
As I turned my face into the wind


  Bm                      Am
I huddled close against a tumbling 
wall
Bm                             
Wrapped in a cloak, to shield me 
           Am
from the bitter cold
    C                           
The solitude weighed heavy on my 
 D
mind
Continues after the ad
                             Em
As I turned my face into the wind


BRIDGE:
    Am                         
The mist rolled down across the 
 Em
countryside
  Am                          Em
I thought I heard the coastal sirens
 sound
     D                       Em
As I turned my face into the wind


  Bm                      Am
I tried to peer into the deepening 
gloom
   Bm                              
To glimpse a lighted window in the 
Am
distance
    C                             
But just too far to penetrate the 
D
rain
                              Em
And I turned my face into the wind


    Bm                      
And yet somehow I sensed her 
  Am
presence near
    Bm                           
And tufts of sheep's-wool hanging 
        Am
from a gorse bush
        C                    
Were as though her hands were 
              D
beckoning me home
                              Em
And I turned my face into the wind
