Key of C#
Intro: FCFCFCDm
I remember as a child on a dark and stormy night
DmC
I heard the screen door slam and I was overcome with fright
FC
So afraid that something bad was trying to get in
AmDmG
Then mama came to comfort me and said,
GFC
It's only the wind, and nothing more
Am CAmG
Not the end of the world knocking at the door
FCFGAm
So close your eyes and dream again, believe me, it's only the wind
FC
Well everytime I've had to face a bitter storm of life,
DmC
Those words of comfort were my shelter in the night
FC
But tonight I don't believe I'm able to pretend
AmDmGAm
The storm that you and I are up against is only the wind.

FC
I can hear you downstairs and you're just about to leave
Am C
There's nothing left that I can do to keep you here with me, no
FC
And now the screen door's slammin and I'm frightened once again
Am Dm G
What I wouldn't give if I could be convinced
GFC
It's only the wind, and nothing more
Am CAmG
Not the end of the world walking out the door
FAmFGF
I wish that I could dream again, believing it's only the wind
C AmCAmG
Oh and nothing more, not the end of my world walking out the door
FAmFGFCFCFCF (fade)
I wish that I could dream again, beleiving it's only the
wind........Only the wind
