~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When the rain is blowing in your face
And the whole world is on your case
I would offer you a warm embrace
To make you feel my love
When the evening shadows and the stars appear
And there´s no one there to dry your tears
I could hold you for a million years
To make you feel my love
I know you haven't made your mind up yet
But I would never do you wrong
I've known it from the moment that we met
No doubt in my mind where you belong
I'd go hungry, I'd go black and blue
I'd go crawling down the avenue
There ain´t nothing that I wouldn't do
To make you feel my love [harmonica break]
The storms are raging on a rollin' sea
And on the ocean of regret
The winds of change are blowing wild and free
You ain't seen nothing like me yet
There ain´t nothing that I wouldn't do
Go to the ends of the earth for you
Make you happy, make your dreams come true
To make you feel my love [break]
To make you feel my love

Harmonica key of D

Texan-born musician August "Augie" Meyers, who is best known as keyboard-player with the Sir Douglas Quintet and the Texas Tornados, played orgaTn on this track. He recalled the recording of this song to Mojo Magazine July 2010: "Bob's a fantastic piano player, when he wants to play. On 'Make You Feel My Love' he asked, 'if you and Doug (Sahm, co-founding member of the Sir Douglas Quintet) were in the studio, how would you do it?' And I said, 'Well we wouldn't have two drummers, four guitar players, and stuff.' I said, 'Did you write this on piano or guitar?' And he said, 'I wrote it on the piano.' I told him, 'Play piano.' and I said, 'I'll play organ, let's just have one bass, one drum and one guitar.' so that's the way we did it."
This song has been recorded by a number of other artists. They include Billy Joel for his Greatest Hits Volume III collection and Garth Brooks for the Hope Floats soundtrack both under the title "To Make You Feel My Love." Also Adele covered the track on her 2008 debut album, 19. As well as Brian Ferry.
Not to forget the lovely cover version of Luka Bloom.
Great version, thanks!
I just learned this song today and I play it in D-major, because it fits to my voice :-)
But I don't have a D-Harp :-(
