Here are a couple of Cat Stevens Tunes I learned from the
recordings last summer. The Wind By Cat Stevens Presented to you by Paul D. Black


This is a short, catchy little diddy. I believe it is off of the Tea
For the Tillerman Album?

Below is the tab to the verse. There is some fingerpicking involved in
that part of the song.

For the chorus part, I just gave the chords since they are in the
standard position and you'll really have to hear the recording to get the
strum pattern (that what gives it it's flavor).

This is just approximate. You'll have to listen to the record to get the
exact chordal pattern. When you hear it you'll see (hear) what I mean.


1st guitar on intro:
+--------+--------+--------+--------+--------+--------+--------+--------+
| | | | |
+--------10-------+--------10-------+--------10-------+--------10-------+

verse. H = Hammer D G Asus4 D G Asus4

Verse 1:
I listen to the wind, to the wind of my soul.
Where I'll end up, well I think, only God really knows.


Chorus: ??

G A G A D Em
I sat upon the setting sun A G A G A G
I never, never, never, never A G A D Em
I never wanted water once A G A D (back to the verse)
I Never, never, never.

Verse2:
I listen to my words but they fall far below.
I let my music take me where my heart wants to go.


G A G A D Em
I swam upon the Devil's Lake A G A G A G
I never, never, never, never A G A D Em
I'll never make the same mistake A G A D
I Never, never, never.

(Back to the verse guitar pattern. Repeat twice and end.)

@mumd2003 Same with me, you've got my respect!

[mumd2003]

@AngelBug514 as always, my pleasure and relaxation. I thought this wasn't some good but I guess other people like it. So kind of you to look in. Always appreciated.

[AngelBug514]

I wish there was a "love" option, or at the very least a 2 thumbs icon. Brought tears to my eyes. One of my all-time-favorites...of my many mumd favorites.
