Intro: instrumental last line

       C                F            C           F
In the chilly hours and minutes of uncertainty I want to be
C                F       G      C      G
In the warm hold of your loving mind,
   C             F               C               F
To feel you all around me and to take your hand along the sand,
    C                 F       G         C    F C G
Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind.


When sundown pales the sky I want to hide a while behind your smile
And everywhere I'd look your eyes I'd find.
For me to love you now would be the sweetest thing, 'twould make me sing,
Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind.


Interlude:

F    Am   C       D       G
Do.. Do.. Do-do.. Do.. Do Do-oo


When rain has hung the leaves with tears I want you near, to kill my fears,
To help me to leave all my blues behind.
Standing in your heart is where I want to be, and long to be,
Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind.
