Anthem

(Lord/Evans)

From "The Book of Taliesyn", 1968

Am                          Bm/A     E/G#                        Am      C/G        F
When the night winds softly blow            through my open window

Dm      E             Am    C/G       F       Dm                   E
then I start to remember                  the girl that brought me joy

Am                              Bm/A      E/G#              Am             C/G        F
     Now the night winds softly blow             sadness to tomorrow

Dm       E          Am                C/G         F
bringing tears to eyes so tired

Dm                   E7
Eyes I thought could cry no more

Chorus:

A Cm#/G# F#m A/E D If the day would only come then you might just appear F#m/C# Bm G D even though you'd soon be gone when I reached out my hand A E D If I could see you (ooohh ooooh) E A E D If only I could see you ooooh ooooh E A D C#m F#m To see if you are laughing or crying A/E D F#m/C# Bm E A When the night winds softly blow Am F E
In my dark and whispering room Memories still bring me a numbness to my feelings Take my hand and brush my brow In the warm and fevered dark Heart is madly beating My crazy thoughts are burning When the night winds softly blow
If the day would only come Then you might just appear even though you'd soon be gone When I reached out my hand If I could see you If only I could see you To see if you are laughing or crying When the night winds softly blow
