[Intro] A D [Verse]
                                           A
On wings of the wind o'er the dark rolling sea

                                D
Angels are coming to watch over thee

                                    A
Angels are coming to watch o'er thy sleep

                                     D
So list' to the wind coming over the deep
[Chorus]
                                        A
Hear the wind blow, love, hear the wind blow

                                      D
Lean your head over and hear the wind blow
[Verse]
                                        A
The currachs are sailing way out on the blue

                              D
Laden with herring of silvery hue

                                   A
Oh, silver the herring, silver the sea

                                     D
Soon there'll be silver for baby and me
[Chorus]
                                        A
Hear the wind blow, love, hear the wind blow

                                      D
Lean your head over and hear the wind blow

                                        A
Hear the wind blow, love, hear the wind blow

                                      D
Lean your head over and hear the wind blow
[Instrumental] D A D A D [Verse]
                                        A
The currachs tomorrow will stand on the shore

                                     D
And Daddy goes sailing, a-sailing no more

                                          A
The nets will be drying, the net's heaven blessed

                                     D
And safe in my arms, contended he'll rest
[Chorus]
                                        A
Hear the wind blow, love, hear the wind blow

                                      D
Lean your head over and hear the wind blow

                                      A
Hear the wind blow, love, hear the whisper

                                      D
Lean your head over and hear the wind blow
