Tryin' to Outrun the Wind Waylon Jennings
performed by Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings.
Verse 1: (Waylon)
H[D]e's a sad song singer
He pl[G]ays a gut-stringer
With v[A]agabond fingers
That follow his m[D]ind
To far away places
He r[G]eaches for traces
And to[A]uches the faces
He's long left beh[D]ind
Verse 2: (Waylon)
H[D]e'll keep you from knowing
Where he[G]'s been or going
Yo[A]u'll see the distance
Right there in his [D]eyes
Just short of stealing
He'[G]ll take your feelings
P[A]ull at your heart strings
Until they come unt[D]ied
Chorus: (Waylon & Willie)
O[G]nce was a woman who made h[D]im turn lonesome
Her m[A]emory turns over and over ag[D]ain
L[G]ike an old stallion who's l[D]onging for freedom
He's tr[A]ying to outrun the w[D]ind
Verse 3: (Willie)
I[D]'ve laughed with the sunshine
Cr[G]ied with the rains
I[A]'ve had some bad nights
With the best of the bl[D]ues
I go on pretending
With l[G]ong haired women
But[A] i still get crazy
When i think of y[D]ou
Chorus.
L[G]ike an old stallion who's l[D]onging for freedom
He's tr[A]ying to outrun the w[D]ind
