Strait George - She Took Wind From Sails guitar tab

This song was recently transcribed and submitted by Jason and Jennifer Hannan,

good work folks...a really nice song. I made a couple of necessary changes

(more for my ears) with the chorus and thought I would share them with y'all.

She Took The Wind From His Sails George Strait

Intro [D][A]

[D] Outer banks of North Carolina

lies a sleepy harbor town

generations of old sailors

dropped their sails and [G] settled down

[D] sam he is a young seafarer

grandson of a schooner man

Catherine is a sail makers' daughter

today he's gonna [G] take her hand

Chorus 1:

[A] Calm [G] waters, [A] wish them [G] well

his [Em] ships' come [F#] in, [G] she's put the [A] wind in his [D] sails

[D] Catherine is a canvas painter

paints the sun and sand and sea

lately she's been painting a portrait

Sam he is a [G] dad to be

Repeat Chorus 1:

[D] January brought the fever

Sam was right there by her side

doctor told him son, I'm sorry,

but Catherine need your [G] prayers tonight

[D] Morning light brought Sam a daughter

fever took his better half

Sam gave Catherine to the water

as he held their baby [G] to his chest

Chorus 2:

[A] Calm [G] waters, [A] wished him [G] well

his [Em] ship came [F#] in, but [G] she took the [A] wind from his [D] sails

his [Em] ship came [F#] in, but [G] she took the [A] wind from his [D] sails
