Warm Wind
Mal Pope

Mal Pope played with Elton John for a long time.
Probably the most under-rated writer/muscian
in the world. He lives in Wales,GB.

While this song was written about W.T. Stead,
a Journalist who died aborad the Titanic and
about his life as a peace advocate, I can't 
help but think of Christ in the garden of
Gethsemane when I hear it. 

W.T. Stead had written a fictional
story about a ship hitting a iceberg an sinking
with great loss of life because of too small
number of lifeboats, several years before Titanic.
He was in line for the Noble Peace Prize at his 
death.


Intro  G  C  G  C   

       G      D    G    D
I have walked this road
          C     D   G
Since the world was new
          C     D     Em
Since the light broke through
G   C         B    B7
and called my name
       Em   G    C
But as time goes by
   G7     D7 D6  Em
No matter how I try
           C
Somehow it seems that
D        D7     C      G    C
life may always be the same

              G    C   Am D 
But there's a warm wind
              G        C      Am Am7 D
Blowing cross my heart tonight
       G                C  Am Am7 D
And I'm right in it's path
                    G  C Am Am7 D
It's where I wanta' be

          G   D   G   D
My life is broken now
       C    D      G
I have been poured out
        C       Em
Self denial and doubt
     C       B    B7
Can fight no more
           Em    G  C
But I will still believe
     D      G    Em
That I will soon receive 
     C          D  
Everything that Heaven's 
         C      G     C
Treasure has in store

                 G    C    Am Am7 D
Cause' there's a warm wind
               G         C    Am Am7 D
Blowing cross my heart tonight
        G               C  Am Am7 D
And I'm right in it's path
                   G   C Am Am7 D
It's where I wanta be
             G     C   Am Am7 D
And there's a warm wind
        G            C    Am Am7 D
And I'm lost in it's power
         G        C   Am Am7 D
And it's taken me over
                    G  C  Am Am7 D
It's where I wanta' be

      Em               C
I see faces in another crowd
             D
they look so hard
             Em
They look so proud
                           C
If you tell me that I must go
            Dsus4 D 
Then I will go
