South Wind of Summer by The Flatlanders
(Joe Ely, Butch Hancock, Jimmie Dale Gilmore)
Slow waltz type flavour (texas style)
INTRO A G A
(A)When the south wind of (C) summer (G)
Sings through the (D) trees
And the high mountain (A) thunder (G)
Hangs low in the (D) breeze
A strong heart flows (F#m) over, (Bm) an empty heart (G) fills
And the south wind of (D) summer (G) caresses the (D)hills
There is no (Bm) returning, the seasons don’t (D)end
They just blow through the (F#m) branches (G)
And bend with the (A) wind
When the south wind of (C) summer (G) sings to the (D) pines
And the faraway (A) cities (G) seem so close (D) behind
A strong heart flows (F#m) over, (Bm) an empty heart (G) fills
And the south wind of (D) summer (G)
Blows where it (D) wills
There is no (Bm)returning, the seasons don’t (D) end
They just blow through the (F#m) branches
And bend with the (A)wind
