Lyrics
Dancing with the Wind
(or up 2 in G with top open)
A E Bm A Bm E
I woke up this morning, I went into her bed
A E Bm A E Bm E
And right beside her pillow was a note that read
A E Bm E
I am dancing with the wind
A E Bm E
I don’t think I’ll come back again
A E Bm E
‘Cause I’m dancing with the wind
A E Bm E
Into the stars and back again
I went up to the mountain and saw her standing there
Angel wings around her, columbines in her hair
And she was dancing with the wind
Into the moon and out again
She was dancing with the wind
Into my arms and out again
I walked on through the winter, the cold was rushin’ in
I couldn’t light the fire, not much was left within
‘Cause she was dancing with the wind
Into my heart and out again
She was dancing with the wind
Who knows what it might have been
‘Cause she was dancing with the wind
Into my heart and out again
She was dancing with the wind
Who cares what it might have been
