SEMINOLE WIND

Intro. Em G D Asus2 Em G D Asus2)

Em G
Ever since the days of old
D Asus2
Men would search for wealth untold
Em G
They'd dig for silver and for gold

D Asus2
And leave the empty holes;

Em G
And way down south in the Everglades
D Asus2
Where the black water rolls and the saw grass waves
Em G
The eagles fly and the otters play
D Asus2
In the land of the Semi-nole;

(Chorus)
Em G
So blow, blow Seminole wind
D Asus2
Blow like you're never gonna blow again;
Em G
I'm callin' to you like a long-lost friend
D Asus2
But I don't know who you are;
Em G
And blow, blow from the Okee-cho-bee
D Asus2
All the way up to Micanopy (pronounced: Meh-can-o-pee)
Em G
Blow across the home of the Seminole
D Asus2
The alligator and the gull

Em G D Asus2 Em G D Asus2

Em G
Progress came and took its toll
D Asus2
And in the name of flood control
Em G
They made their plans and they drained the land
D Asus2
Now the Glades are goin' dry
Em G
Last time I, walked in the swamp
D Asus2
I stood up on a cypruss stump
Em G
I listened close and I heard the ghost
D Asus2
Of Os-eo-la cry

(Chorus)

Em G D Asus2 (play the end chord as whole notes)
strike chord once let it ring and fade
(I used to play this with the A chord, but like the Asus2 much better)
