Chords in this song6

Verse 1

That's when Wendell Gee takes a tug
Upon the string that held the line of trees
Behind the house he lived in
He was reared to give respect
But somewhere down the line he chose

Chorus

So whistle as the wind blows 
Whistle as the wind blows, with me

Verse 2

He had a dream one night,
that the tree had lost its middle
So he built a trunk of chicken wire
to try to hold it up
But the wire, the wire turned to lizard skin,
and when he climbed inside
There wasn't even time to say 
goodbye to Wendell Gee  

Chorus

So whistle as the wind blows 
Whistle as the wind blows, with me

Verse 3

      
       
There wasn't even time to say 
goodbye to Wendell Gee  

Outro

So whistle as the wind blows 
Whistle as the wind blows, with me
If the wind were colours, 
and if the air could speak  
Then whistle as the wind blows 
Whistle as the wind blows, with me
