Strawbs - I Turned My Face Into The Wind


INTRO: Am G F D E B Em B E

 Bm          Am
I wandered far onto the lonely moors
Bm                     Am
Sparse coarse tufts of grass reached out to trip me
   C                  D
And above my head the leaden clouds hung low
               Em
As I turned my face into the wind


 Bm           Am
I huddled close against a tumbling wall
Bm                    Am
Wrapped in a cloak, to shield me from the bitter cold
  C              D
The solitude weighed heavy on my mind
               Em
As I turned my face into the wind

BRIDGE:
  Am             Em
The mist rolled down across the countryside
 Am             Em
I thought I heard the coastal sirens sound
   D            Em
As I turned my face into the wind


 Bm           Am
I tried to peer into the deepening gloom
  Bm               Am
To glimpse a lighted window in the distance
  C               D
But just too far to penetrate the rain
               Em
And I turned my face into the wind


  Bm            Am
And yet somehow I sensed her presence near
  Bm                  Am
And tufts of sheep's-wool hanging from a gorse bush
    C                 D
Were as though her hands were beckoning me home
               Em
And I turned my face into the wind
