Lyrics
Oh, the way ward wind
is a rest less (G)wind,
a rest less (D)wind
that yearns to (A7)wan der;
and he was (D11)born
the next of (G)kin,
the next of (D)kin
to the (G)way ward (D)wind.
In a lone ly shack by a rail road track he spent his young er days,
and I guess the sound of the out ward bound (A7)made him a slave
to his wand ’rin’ (D)ways.
(CN.C.)Oh the way ward wind
is a rest less (G)wind,
a rest less (D)wind
that yearns to (A7)wan der;
and he was (D11)born
the next of (G)kin,
the next of (D)kin
to the (G)way ward (D)wind.
Oh I met him there in a bor der town, he vowed we’d nev er part,
’tho he tried his best to the set tle down (A7)I’m now a lone
with a bro ken (D)ways.
(CN.C.)Oh the way ward (D)heart.
(CN.C.)Oh the way ward (D)wind.
