C            Am          F         C 
There was a singer who came to my door 
                Am         F        G 
I'd seen him in town a few times before 
F                G        F            G 
Though there are few who remember his name 
C                Am         F        G      C 
I still see his face in my crooked window pane 
 

 
C                      Am 
And the longing in his voice 
     F               C 
no human soul could hold 
                   Am      F       G 
When he was in the cradle, he was already old 
      F          G         F        G 
And maybe that's why he left us so soon 
    C          Am          F     G        C 
He traded his chips for a home behind the moon 
 

 
          F          G        C           F 
And like three of a kind like birds of a feather 
                                     C 
When the wind blows, we'll all go together 
F               G              C 
When the wind blows, we'll all go

C              Am           F            C 
Once I loved a woman whose life took her west 
               Am             F                G 
She was doing fine, but she wanted, to be the best 
    F         G            F              G 
She got so hungry that she ate the whole world 
C           Am              F       G      C 
And she was homeless, just like an orphan girl 
 

 
C                     Am              F             C 
We were sitting in a diner, we were waiting for a bus 
             Am      F             G 
Her aim was clear, California, or bust 
      F              G                 F            G 
And I knew that she meant it by the flowers in her hair 
        C             Am          F         G       C 
When I think of San Francisco, I wonder if she's there 
 

 
           F         G         C          F 
And like three of a kind like birds of a feather 
                                     C 
When the wind blows, we'll all go together 
F              G               C 
When the wind blows, we'll all go

                  Am              F           C 
And I think of my friends as Im heading down south 
                          Am                       G 
And I'll toast them with every glass I raise to my mouth 
          F             G                    F         G 
And I'll see them this summer, and I'll see them if I can 
      C                Am          F      G       C 
I'll meet them in the haven of the lovers on the land 
 

 
      C          Am     F               C 
But sometimes I wonder what might have been 
                       Am          F          G 
And the mystic in me knows that it all comes around again 
     F            G             F         G 
But still, it is fine to leave something behind 
      C      Am                F   G      C 
And time is kind to those who know how to ride 
 

 
           F         G         C          F 
And like three of a kind like birds of a feather 
                                    C 
When the wind blows, we'll all go together 
F               G              C 
When the wind blows, we'll all go
