Intro

Riff G Cadd9
Riff G Cadd9

Verse 1

Riff G G/F#
Now and then it keeps you running
Never seems to die
Trail spent with fear
Not enough living on the outside
Never seem to get far enough 
Staying in be-tween the lines
Hold on to what you can
Waiting for the end, not knowing when

Chorus

May the wind take your troubles away 
May the wind take your troubles away
Both feet on the floor
Two hands on the wheel
May the wind take your troubles away

Instrumental

    
    

Bridge

Trying to make it far enough
To the next time zone
Few and far between past the midnight hour
Never feel alone
You're really not alone

Instrumental

     
Riff G Cadd9

Verse 2

Riff G G/F#
Switching it over to A.M.
Searching for a truer sound
Can't re-call the call letters
Steel gui-tar, I settle down
Catching an all-night station 
Somewhere in Lou-isiana
Sounds like 1963
But for now sounds like heaven

Chorus

May the wind take your troubles away 
May the wind take your troubles away
Both feet on the floor
Two hands on the wheel
May the wind take your troubles away

Outro

May the wind take your troubles a-way
May the wind
Take your troubles away

Instrumental
