When the Winds Blow Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Common people living quietly
in confusion
[F]Information's giving quite
a [Em]grand illusion
[G]Hearts are beating,
keeping time to meet a deadline
[F]Faces pressed against the pane
to [Em]watch a headline

[Verse 2]
[G]When the [F]winds blow I will [C]call[D]
[G]When the [F]winds blow I will [C]call[D]
[G]When the [F]winds blow I will [Bm]call [C]you
[Bm]We will st[Cm]and and watch them fall

[Verse 3]
[G]All our ships are sailing blindly
under one sun
[F]Sending signals, calling kindly,
[Em]reaching no-one
Echoes [G]Echoes sound the shifting
air of empires calling
[F]Hold my hand,
the shifting sand of em[Em]pires falling

[Verse 4]
[G]When the [F]winds blow I will [C]call[D]
[G]When the [F]winds blow I will [C]call[D]
[G]When the [F]winds blow I [Bm]will call [C]you
[Bm]We will st[Cm]and and watch them fall
[G]Oh, we'll [Cm]stand and watch them [G]fall

[Interlude 1]

[G]

[Verse 5]
[G]We confided, then decided not to follow
[F]All the slogans, taunts and charges,
[Em]sound so hollow
With [G]open minds across the border,
we have waited
But [F]keeping place within this
race is complicated
[Em]

[Verse 6]
[G]When the [F]winds blow I will [C]call[D]
[G]When the [F]winds blow I will [C]call[D]
[G]When the [F]winds blow I [Bm]will call [C]you
[Bm]We will st[Cm]and and watch them

[Verse 7]
[G]When the [F]winds blow I will [C]call[D]
[G]When the [F]winds blow I will [C]call[D]
[G]When the [F]winds [Bm]blow I will[C] call you
We [Bm]will [Cm]stand and watch them [G]fall
Oh, we'll [Cm]stand and [G]watch [Cm]them fall[G]
