Version 1The Wayward Wind by Slim Whitman (1956) [Verse 1] G In a lonely shack by a railroad track G I spent my younger days G And I guess the sound of the outward bound D G Made me a slave to my wand'ring ways [Chorus] G And the wayward wind (the wayward wind) C Cm Is a restless wind (a restless wind) G A restless wind (a restless wind) Am D That yearns to wa - nder G C Cm And I was born the next of kin G Am G The next of kin -- to the wayward wind [Verse 2] G Oh I met a girl in a border town G I vowed we'd never part G Tho' I tried my best to settle down D G She's now alone with a broken heart [Chorus] G And the wayward wind (the wayward wind) C Cm Is a restless wind (a restless wind) G A restless wind (a restless wind) Am D That yearns to wa - nder G C Cm And I was born the next of kin G Am G The next of kin -- to the wayward wind [Outro] G Am G The next of kin -- to the wayward wind
