Whispers in the Pines

 

(finger pick high E string)

        Fret 7              5        

The wind that dances in the willows

      3                     1

And whispers in the pines

C                      D7        G

It's singing out a lyric of love

 

Fret 7            5      

Draws its very breath from heaven

      3                 1

Its message is sublime

C                       D7      G

It's singing out a lyric of love

 

G

On early morning breezes

D7

And gusty afternoons

C

In the stillness of the evening it says

pinch G and E strings at fret

7 5      3

I love you

        Fret 7              5        

The wind that dances in the willows

      3                     1

And whispers in the pines

C                      D7        G

It's singing out a lyric of love

        Fret 7               5        

The wind that dances in the willows

      3                     1

And whispers in the pines

C                     D7       G

Is singing out a lyric of love

     7                            5              

It’s reached four corners of the earth

              3                 1

Since the beginning of time

C                    D7       G

With its simple lyric of love

G

Up there in the Northland

D7

In the deep South too

C

Traveling east to west says

Pinch G and E strings at Fret

7 5      3

I love you

        Fret 7                     5        

The wind that dances in the willows

      3                     1

And whispers in the pines

And whispers in the pines

C                      D7        G

It's singing out a lyric of love

7                      5

Wrap yourself in its embrace

     3                        1

In the midst of every storm

C                    D7            G

Hear the sweet melody of love

G

And when at last you cry out

D7

And you most surely will

          C

It will take your plea to heaven and say

Pinch G and E strings at Fret

7 5      3

I love you

               Fret 7        5        

The wind that dances in the willows

It's singing out a lyric of love
