  			C                 Am              C                 Am 
Way out west they have a name for rain and wind and fire 

    C                Am                  F        G7   C 
The rain is Tess the fire's Joe and they call the wind Mariah 

                 Am               C                 Am 
Mariah blows the stars around and sets the clouds a-flying 

  C                 Am                F     G7            C

Mariah  Mariah 

     F        G7    C 
They call the wind Mariah 


              Am               C                  Am 
Before I knew Mariah's name or heard her wail and whining 

  C                 Am             F       G7     C 
I had a gal and she had me and the sun was always shining 

             Am                  C                     Am 
And then one day I left that gal I left her far behind me 

    C                   Am            F    G7           C 
And now I'm lost I'm so darn lost not even God can find me 


Am       Em

Out her theyâ??ve got a name for rain wind and fire only 

    C                Am                  F        G7       C 
And when you're lost and all alone there ain't no word for lonely 

                Am             C                 Am 
Well I'm a lost and lonely man without a star to guide me

Mariah blow my love to me I need a her beside me
