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 they [G] 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
