TITLE: Scattered to the Wind
Lyrics and Chords


[ Dm* =  ; C* =  ; Bb* =  ; Gm* =  ; A* =  ]

Way off in the distance, you hear the whistle blow
Could be a hundred miles, guess you'll never know
In January's dark embrace the snow closes in
Another friend or lover gone, scattered to the wind

/ Dm* C* Bb* Gm*A* / :

Fly away, oh fly away, fly away, oh

/ Dm C Bb GmA / :

This old town is dying - the young are getting out
The old are leaving too, they say, with a whimper, not a shout
It's time to count out what we've lost and what we hoped to win
Before we pick up from the dust to scatter to the wind

Fly away, oh fly away, fly away, oh

In the dark of winter I taste the falling snow
You wonder why I stay behind and you're the last to go
But out there is a spring time, just like the ones we've known
I swear I feel it coming on, I feel it in my bones

The smell of smoke low in the air as Orion lights the night
I hear your echo in my head, one final lover's fight
As the wind blows through my life tonight, I feel the cold within
The ashes of our love now fallen, scattered to the wind 

Fly away, oh fly away, fly away, oh
Fly away, oh fly away, fly away, oh
