Wild Wind by Robert Earl Keen




                Wild Wind 






G       C            Am        D
Down on Main Street after sundown,
G          C           Am        D
Good time Charlie, and Wanderin' Bill
G                  C             Am            D
Thought they might hold up, ole' Hoppy's Drive In.
G        C           Am    D
One got away and one never will.


CHORUS:

G              D       C           Am
And that's the way it goes around here;
(around here)
G       D         C
I think everybody knows.
(I guess everybody knows)
G              D            C           Am
And that's the song I been singin' for years.
(ten years)
G          D                 C
That's the way the wild wind blows.
(wild wind blows)



G          C           Am  D
Too tall Annie kept her money
G      C       Am    D
In a Bible she never read.
G          C           Am        D
They found Lefty, her first ex-husband
G          C                    Am              D
In his new pick-up truck at the bottom of the river bed.


CHORUS


G          C                Am   D
Luther Martin, he ain’t got nobody.
G          C           Am        D
Well he sells his papers and buys his wine.
G              C           Am            D
His great-granddaddy owned half of Main Street.

G          C           Am     D
Luther’s daddy didn’t have a dime.

CHORUS

G          C           Am        D
Ain’t no secret Ol’ Doc Skinner
G             C             Am        D
Wrote prescriptions and made lots of friends.
G         C             Am        D
He could dance like nobody’s business.
G          C             A      D
Folks around here, are sure missin’ him.
