[ Seminole Wind von John Anderson ]



Intro:  Em     G      D     A    Em     G      D     A

  Em                 G
      Ever since the days of old
  D                         A
       Men would search for wealth untold
  Em                        G
      They'd dig for silver and for gold
      D               A
  And leave the empty holes;
      Em                    G
  And way down south in the Everglades
            D                         A
  Where the black water rolls and the saw grass waves
  Em                       G
    The eagles fly and the otters play
         D               A
  In the land of the Seminole;


     Em         G
  So blow, blow Seminole wind
  D                            A
  Blow like you're never gonna blow again;
  Em                          G
    I'm callin' to you like a long-lost friend
      D                    A
  But I don't know who you are;
      Em                  G
  And blow, blow from the Okeechobee
  D                 A
  All the way up to Micanopy    (pronounced: Meh-can-o-pee)
  Em                          G
  Blow across the home of the Seminole
      D                A
  The alligator and the gull


  Instrumental:  Em     G      D     A   Em     G      D     A


  Em                 G
  Progress came and took its toll
  D               A
  And in the name of flood control
    Em                         G
  They made their plans and they drained the land
  D               A
  Now the Glades are goin' dry
    Em                 G
  And the last time I walked in the swamp
  D               A
  I stood up on a cypress stump
    Em                 G
  I listened close and I heard the ghost
  D         A
  Of Oseola cry


     Em         G
  So blow, blow Seminole wind
  D                            A
  Blow like you're never gonna blow again;
  Em                          G
    I'm callin' to you like a long-lost friend
      D                    A
  But I don't know who you are
      Em                  G
  And blow, blow from the Okeechobee
  D                 A
  All the way up to Micanopy    (pronounced: Meh-can-o-pee)
  Em                          G
  Blow across the home of the Seminole
      D                A
  The alligator and the gull
