I Envy The Wind

Lucinda Williams


Tom: C

C   Am   Dm   G

           C
I envy the wind
                      Am
That whispers in your ear
                       Dm
That howls through the winter
                  G
That freezes your fingers
                        C
That moves through your hair
                Am
And cracks your lips
                       Dm     G
That chills you to the bone
           C
I envy the wind


           C
I envy the rain
                   Am
That falls on your face
                  Dm
That wets your eyelashes
                  G
That dampens your skin
                  C
That touches your tongue
                        Am
That soaks through your shirt
                    Dm     G
And drips down your back
           C
I envy the rain


           C
I envy the sun
                    Am
That brightens your summer
                Dm
That warms your body
                     G
And holds you in her heat
                     C
That makes your days longer
               Am
That makes you hot
               Dm      G
That makes you sweat
           C
I envy the sun


           C
I envy the wind
           Am
I envy the rain
           Dm     G
I envy the sun
           C
I envy the wind
