Wild Wind
Transcribed by Ivan L. Pierce
(Cory did a great job...just some chords in the chorus were off and a few lyrics...
so I thought I would fix them)
Verse
G C Am D
Down on Main Street, After Sundown
G C Am D
Good-Time Charlie and Wonderin' Bill
G C Am D
Thought they might hold up, old Hoppy's drive-in,
G C Am D
One got away, and one never will.
CHORUS
C D G C
And that's the way, it goes around here,
G D Em
I think everybody knows
C D G C
That's the song, they been singin' for years
G D C
That's the way the wild wind blows.
VS
Too tall Annie kept her money
In a Bible she never read
They found Lefty, her first ex-husband,
In his new pickup truck at the bottom of the riverbed
CHORUS
VS
Luther Martin, he ain't got nobody
But he sells papers and buys his wine
His granddaddy owned half of Main Street
Luther's daddy didn't have a dime
CHORUS
VS
Ain't no secret old Doc Skinner
Wrote prescr i ptions, made lots of friends
He could dance like nobody's business
Folks around here are sure missing him
CHORUS
