Eastern Wind
Words & Music by Chris de Burgh
Intro: Dm - C - Dm - C - Dm - Dm
Well my DmfurrowCs are filled with cDmorn,
I have myDm womCan to keep me wDmarm,
But there's one tDmhing that I do Ffear,
That Eastern wCind is getting nDmear,
There's a shotgun beside my bed,
This is my country, where I was born and bred,
But I am sure, as the willow will grow,
That Eastern wind is going to blow,
CBlowing a hole in my Dmlife, FEasCtern wDmind,
CRunning away with my Dmlife, EFastCern wDmind; C
There's a woman who reads the stars,
She sees Warlords on the planet Mars,
And she said, "Boy, you'd better beware,
That restless wind is getting near,
Blowing a hole in your life, Eastern wind,
Running away with your life, Eastern wind..."
FThE7ey are coming, they are coming,
they are cComing, look out!
In my dream, I saw a crowd,
They were burning the palace down,
I saw a mad old man, and I ran to the door,
And then that wind began to roar,
And when they come, they'll find me here,
I will not run, they will not see my fear,
And I will fight to the very end,
Before that wind I will never bend,
If they're blowing a hole in my life, Eastern wind,
Oh running away with my life, Eastern wind,
Taking the plough from my hands, Eastern wind,
Taking every bit of my land, Eastern wind...
