Title song of Joan Baez' last album "Whistle Down The Wind" (2017)
Capo I

When twice E7, you can change from E7 1st fret to E7 bar chord on 7th fret
When twice B7, you can change from E7 1st fret to B7 bar chord on 7th fret

[Intro]
A E A D
Bm E A E
A E A D
Bm E A E

[Verse]
A E A D
I grew up here all of my life
Bm E A E
But I dreamed some day I'd go
A E A D
Where the blue-eyed girls and the red guitars and
Bm E A
The naked rivers flow

D
I'm not all I thought I'd be
A
I've always stayed around
D
And I've been as far as Mercy and Grand
B7 E7
Frozen to the ground

A E A D
I can't stay here and I'm scared to leave
Bm E A E
So kiss me once and then
A E A D
I'll go to hell, I might as well
Bm E A
Be whistlin' down the wind

[Break]
D A
The bus is at the corner
D A
Clock on the wall
D A
Broken down windmill
B7 B7
And no wind at all
D A
I've yelled and I cursed
D A
If I stay here I'll rust
D A
I'm stuck like a shipwreck
B7 B7
Out here in the dust

[Instrumental]
A E A D Bm E A E
A E A D Bm E A E

A E A D
The sky is red and the world's on fire
Bm E A E
And the corn is taller than me
A E A D
And the dog is tied to a wagon of rain
Bm E A E
And the road is wet as the sea

D
Sometimes the music from a dance
A A
Will carry across the plains
D
Places I've been dreaming of
B7 E7 E7
Dream only of your face

A E A D
There are places where they never sleep
Bm E A E
And the circus never ends
A E A D
So I will take the Marleybone coach
Bm E A E
And be whistling down the wind
A E A D
So I will take the Marleybone coach
Bm E A E
And be whistling down the wind

[Outro]
A E A D Bm E A
