E                                  A   
Oh, the wayward wind is a restless wind,   
           E                    B7   
a restless wind, that yearns to wander.   
          E                A   
And I was born the next of kin,  
            E     B7             E   
the next of kin to the wayward wind.   

#2.   
E   
In a lonely shack by a railroad track,   

I spent my younger days.   

And I guess the sound of the outward-bound  
          B7                     E   
made me a slave to my wandering ways.   


E                                  A   
Oh, the wayward wind is a restless wind,   
           E                    B7   
a restless wind that yearns to wander.   
          E                A   
And I was born the next of kin,  
            E     B7             E   
the next of kin to the wayward wind.   

#3.   
F   
Oh, I met a girl in a border town,   

I vowed we'd never part.   

Though I tried my best to settle down,  
           C                  F   
She's now alone with a broken heart.   
   
F                                  Bb   
Oh, the wayward wind is a restless wind,   
           F                    C7   
a restless wind that yearns to wander.   
          F                Bb   
And I was born the next of kin,   

OUTRO:   
            F     C7             F   
the next of kin to the wayward wind.(x2)
