The Headwinds
______________
[verse]
There was a cold December Emsnow,
On the Dstreets and towns beloDw,
You stuck you Emname into the groEmund with Emme.D  
But love, Emlike all frigid Emthings,
We did Gmelt away with Gease,
Washed awEmay in liquid Emease,
We set Emout into the Dsea.
Like a Amwave upon the Amshore,
We rose Emup and crashed back Ddown upon ourCselves.C  C  C  
And the Amwords that fill our Amlips,
Bitter Emshrieks and evil Dquips,
C   C   D   D   Em   Em   G   G   C   C   Em   Dx2
Oh how they stain, oh they stain the ground below.
Like the Emhorn that breaks the Emfog,
GG(SS) C   C   C  C  
I beat down here on my chest, love, like a drum.
And you'll Emhear my growling Emvoice,
GG(SS) C   C   C  C  
Once so silent, now I've got no goddamn choice.
But to Amsing my favourite Amsong,
Like the Emheadwinds; filling Dsoon out of my Clungs.C  C  C  
Now I'm Amfighting with the Amflow,
Now what's Emleft here? I don't Dknow.
Should I Cstay, or should I Cgo?
Should I Cstay, or should I Cgo?
Should I Amstay, or should I Amgo?
Should I Amstay, or should I Amgo?
Should I Cstay, or should I Cgo?
Should I Cstay, or should I Cgo?
Should I Amstay, or should I Amgo?
Should I Amstay, or should I Dgo?C  C  C  C  
oh EmohhhhEmhhhhhEmhhh, Emoh GohhhGhhhhGhhhGhhhChhhhChhhC  C

AmlaaaaaAmaaaaBmaaaBm  
And the Cluck we had it Cleaves,
But our Emfate, it was to Ddie away with Cease.C  C  C  
And my Amdear, in years to Amcome, will you Emthink of me with Dhate here, or with
Clove.C  C  
And Doh Dthis Chouse,
We Cblew the Cstorm,
It Dcrumbles Emback,
To the Emearth belDow,
And DI am Cdone,
And Cyou are Cdone,
And Cwe are Amgone,
And notAmhing's Dleft here Dbut this Emsong.Em  G  G  C  C  Am
