Billy Joe Shaver - A Restless Wind guitar chord

#

******************** A RESTLESS WIND *********************

written and performed by Billy Joe Shaver.

Verse 1:

D Bm

A stone thrown from Heaven,skippin' 'cross the water

E A

Would disappear in ripples left behind

D Bm

A book with no cover,a rhyme with no reason

E A

Guess i'll always be one of the rovin' kind

Verse 2:

D Bm

'Cause movin's in my soul,i guess a gypsy boy got a hold

E A

Of somebody in my family long ago

D Bm

If some night while half asleep you hear the back door softly squeak

E A

You'll touch my empty pillow,then you'll know

Chorus:

Bm F#m

That restless wind,is calling me again

E A

Her warmin' hand is tuggin' at my soul

Bm F#m

Summer's gone,and winter's comin' on

E A

And i can't let it catch me standin' in the cold

Verse 3:

D Bm

Life made dice out of my bones and it won't leave me alone

E A

'Till it warms me up and takes another roll

D Bm

You can't grow sullen every time,so there ain't no use in cryin'

E A

It don't take an educated head to know

Verse 4:

D Bm

When i'm movin' down the road i won't need no overload

E A

Nor memories of you to weigh my mind

D Bm

And every step i wade will be one more i could take

E A

That put those memories further down the line

Chorus.
