Cash Johnny - ANY OLD WIND THAT BLOWS Lyrics

Recorded by Johnny Cash

Written by Dick Feller



[A] Lord, she's restless

Like [D] cotton candy clouds that sail the [A] day

Flowin' [D] free ... and she pos-[A] sesses

A [D] mind that can't resign itself to [A] stay ... for [D] long, with me

So I [E] tried and tried, to keep her tied and [D] satisfied

Until she really [A] needs me ... yes I [D] do

But [A] when that certain look comes on her [E] face

I can't re-[D] place it and she leaves [A] me.



I know she needs me

About as much as I need someone else

Which I don't ... and if need be

I swear someday I'll up and leave myself ... which I won't

Even If she loved another man, I'd understand it more than I do

Umh, umh, umh - but I know the only reason

That she ever had for leavin', is she wants to.



CHORUS

She's a [E] butterfly in mid July, who [D] just can't wait to try

Her brand new [A] wings, on brand new [D] things

And she [A] needs no rhyme or [D] reason, when she [A] goes

Her [E] mind is on what lies beyond that [D] wall of Blue horizon

I sup-[A] pose ... and heaven [D] knows

She'll go [A] sailin' off on [E] any old wind that [A] blows.



Yes she [D] will, yes she [A] will

She'll go sailin' off on [E] any old wind that [A] blows.
