Strum
D-DU-UDU
Hit an open G on the upbeat.
2x
Whistles the wind
Blowin' my way
Sweepin' me back, back here to stay
Can winners be losers?
Runnin' on the same track
While some head for glory, others we crash
Well it breaks my heart to see you this way
The beauty in life where's it gone
And somebody told me you were doin' okay
But somehow I guess they were wrong
My isolation
Now there's a sobering thought
A minute alone, a lifetime too long
See the face in this mirror
So pale it could crack
Desperately wantin' the color it lacks
Well it breaks my heart to see you this way
The beauty in life where's it gone
And somebody told me you were doin' okay
But somehow I guess they were wrong
So you drank with the lost souls
For too many years
Tied to their ankles now crippled with fear
Never been righteous though seldom were wrong
Life's only life with you in this song
2x
Now there's an ocean between
Where I am and where I want to be
So you prayers in doubt
Doubt not for me
Well it breaks my heart to see you this way
The beauty in life where's it gone
And somebody told me you were doin' okay
But somehow I guess they were wrong
Well it breaks my heart to see you this way
The beauty in life where's it gone
And somebody told me you were doin' okay
But somehow I guess they were wrong
Whistles the wind
Whistles the wind
Whistles the wind
Whistles the wind
Though you'll find your way out
But there's no goin' now
Every woman and child
Drags you down for the dive
It's not safe being free
Can't give back what you feel
He said you'll always be in heaven with me
