Seminole Wind [Em] - John Anderson
[Intro]
[Em] [G] [D] [A] x2
[Verse 1]
[Em] Ever since the [G]days of old
[D]Men would search for [A]wealth untold
[Em] They'd dig for silver [G]and for gold
And [D]leave the empty [A]holes;
And [Em]way down south in the [G]Everglades
Where the [D]black water rolls and the [A]saw grass waves
[Em] The eagles fly and the [G]otters play
In the [D]land of the Semi[A]nole;
|[Chorus]
|So [Em]blow, blow [G]Seminole wind
|[D]Blow like you're never gonna [A]blow again;
|[Em] I'm callin' to you like a [G]long-lost friend
|But [D]I know who you [A]are;
|And [Em]blow, blow from the [G]Okeechobee
|[D]All the way up to [A]Micanopy
|[Em]Blow across the home of the [G]Seminole
|The [D]alligators and the [A]gar
Instrumental:
[Em] [G] [D] [A] x2
[Verse 2]
[Em] Progress came and [G]took its toll
[D] And in the name of [A]flood control
[Em] They made their plans and the[G]y drained the land
[D] Now the Glades are[A] goin' dry
[Em] And the last time I[G] walked in the swamp
[D] I stood up on a [A]cypress stump
[Em] I listened close and I[G] heard the ghost
[D] Of Osceola [A]cry
|[Chorus]
|So [Em]blow, blow [G]Seminole wind
|[D]Blow like you're never gonna [A]blow again;
|[Em] I'm callin' to you like a [G]long-lost friend
|But [D]I know who you [A]are;
|And [Em]blow, blow from the [G]Okeechobee
|[D]All the way up to [A]Micanopy
|[Em]Blow across the home of the [G]Seminole
|The [D]alligators and the [A]gar
