[Intro]

Em  Em  Em  Em

[Verse]

          G      (D)        Em
When they poured across the border
      G        (D)    Em
I was cautioned to surrender
       G         D
this I could not do
C                   G        B7
  I took my gun and vanished
Em  Em  Em  Em

       G         (D)      Em
I have changed my name so often
     G      (D)       Em
I've lost my wife and children
      G         D
but I have many friends
C                      G       B7
  and some of them are with me
Em  Em  Em  Em

       G    (D)      Em
An old woman gave us shelter
        G    (D)      Em
kept us hidden in the garret
         G        D
then the soldiers came
C                    G       B7
  she died without a whisper
Em  Em  Em  Em

           G       (D)      Em
There were three of us this morning
        G   (D)       Em
I'm the only one this evening
      G       D
but I must go on
C                      G      B7
  the frontiers are my prison
Em  Em  Em  Em

        G        (D)      Em
Oh, the wind, the wind is blowing
            G         (D)      Em
through the graves the wind is blowing
G                 D
freedom soon will come
C                          G       B7
  then we'll come from the shadows
Em  Em  Em  Em

        G     (D)          Em
Les Allemands étaient chez moi               
       G        (D)    Em
ils me dirent, resigne-toi                   
        G        D
mais je n'ai pas pu                          
C                 G    B7
  j'ai repris mon arme                       
Em  Em  Em  Em

         G      (D)      Em
J'ai changé cent fois de nom                
        G       (D)   Em
j'ai perdu femme et enfants                  
          G       D
mais j'ai tant d'amis                        
C                  G     B7 
  j'ai la France entière                     
Em  Em  Em  Em

         G         (D)    Em
Un vieil homme dans un grenier               
        G        (D)  Em
pour la nuit nous a cachés                   
        G           D
les Allemands l'ont pris                     
C                     G     B7
  il est mort sans surprise                  
Em  Em  Em  Em

        G        (D)      Em
Oh, the wind, the wind is blowing
            G         (D)      Em
through the graves the wind is blowing
G                 D
freedom soon will come
C                          G       B7
  then we'll come from the shadows
Em  Em  Em  Em
