Am                   G           C
The wind is laughing through the trees

Am                G      Am  Dm C G Am
Laughing with me, not at me

Dm                  C          Bb
Round here when the wind blows hard

Am                   G       Am  Dm C G Am
You start forgetting who you are
[Break] Am G C Dm C G Am [Verse]
Am                 G        C
Round here when it rains it pours

Am                G    Am     Dm C G Am
Even the bobolink goes indoors

Dm                      C        Bb
You'll be forgotten but you wont forget

Am                         G        Am     Dm C G Am
Come along with me, you'll just get wet
[Break] Am G C Dm C G Am Am G C Dm C G Am [Verse]
Am           G       C
Arizona's so hot and dry

Am                   G         Am   Dm C G Am
Dreamt up rivers and mountains rise

Dm                   C        Bb
The old cars left to rest and rust

Am                G        Am    Dm C G Am
Come down with me,says the dust
[Break] Am G C Dm C G Am Am G C Dm C G Am [Verse]
Am            G       C
Out here on a stormy night

Am                    G         Am    Dm C G Am
Amidst the clouds and crackling light

Dm              C       Bb
Times a foe and times a friend

Am                  G        Am   Dm C G Am
Come along with me, says the wind
[Guitar Solo] Am G C Dm C G Am Am G C Dm C G Am Am G C Dm C G Am Am G C Dm C G Am [Verse]
Am        G           C
Arizona's filled with ghosts

Am           G           Am  Dm C G Am
San Joaquin, my gracious host

Dm                   C        Bb
Through the rain the wind and dust

Am             G  Am   Dm C G Am
To the arms of Je-Sus
[Outro] Am G C Dm C G Am Am G C Dm C G Am
