Only the Wind
By: Billy Dean

Key of C#

Capo on 1st fret
Intro: F C F C

F C Dm
I remember as a child on a dark and stormy night
Dm C
I heard the screen door slam and I was overcome with fright
F C
So afraid that something bad was trying to get in
Am Dm G
Then mama came to comfort me and said,

Chorus
G F C
It's only the wind, and nothing more
Am C Am G
Not the end of the world knocking at the door
F C F G Am
So close your eyes and dream again, believe me, it's only the wind

F C
Well everytime I've had to face a bitter storm of life,
Dm C
Those words of comfort were my shelter in the night
F C
But tonight I don't believe I'm able to pretend
Am Dm G Am
The storm that you and I are up against is only the wind.

(Instrumental)Am F Am F G

F C
I can hear you downstairs and you're just about to leave
Am C
There's nothing left that I can do to keep you here with me, no
F C
And now the screen door's slammin and I'm frightened once again
Am Dm G
What I wouldn't give if I could be convinced

G F C
It's only the wind, and nothing more
Am C Am G
Not the end of the world walking out the door
F Am F G F
I wish that I could dream again, believing it's only the wind
C Am C Am G
Oh and nothing more, not the end of my world walking out the door
F Am F G F C F C F C F (fade)
I wish that I could dream again, beleiving it's only the
wind........Only the wind
