Listening To The Wind
Merle Haggard (2000)
Intro
| [A] | [A] | [A] | [A]
| [D] | [D] | [D] | [D]
Listening to the | [G] wind | [G] | [G]
| [G] Trying to hear the voice of a | [D] distant friend | [D] | [D]
| [D] Wishing you and I were | [A7] close again | [A7] | [A7]
| [A7] Listening to the | [D] wind | [D] | [D7]
Chorus
| [D7] Listening to the | [G] bree- | [G] eeze | [G]
As it | [G] whispers through the | [D] poplar trees | [D] | [D]
Do you | [D] think I mean | [A7] way back then | [A7] | [A7]
| [A7] Do you listen to the | [D] wind | [D] | [D7]
| [D7] Listening to the | [G] night | [G] | [G]
Wishing | [G] we could hold and squeeze | [D] each other tight | [D] | [D]
I can | [D] almost hear the | [A7] stars so | [A7] bright | [A7]
| [A7] Listening to the | [D] night | [D] | [D7]
Chorus
| [D7] Listening to the | [G] sou- | [G] ounds | [G]
Of a | [G] highway through | [D] some distant town | [D] | [D]
I can | [D] almost hear the | [A7] pale moon | [A7] light | [A7]
| [A7] Do you listen to the | [D] night | [D] | [D7] | [D7]
Instrumental
| [G] | [G] | [G] | [G]
| [D] | [D] | [D] | [D]
| [A7] | [A7] | [A7] | [A7]
| [D] | [D] | [D7]
| [D7] Listening to my | [G] mind | [G] | [G]
| [G] Searching through my thoughts for the | [D] perfect line | [D] | [D]
Using | [D] tricks and | [A7] telepathy at | [A7] times | [A7]
Do you | [A7] listen to your | [D] mind | [D] | [D7]
Chorus
| [D7] Listening to the | [G] bree- | [G] eeze | [G]
As it | [G] whispers through... | [D] ... | [D] ...the poplar trees | [D]
| [D] Wishing you and I | [A7] were close again | [A7] | [A7]
| [A7] Just listening to the | [D] wind | [D] | [D] | [D↓]
