eastern wind words & music by chris de burgh Intro : Em - D - Em - D - Am - Em Em D Em well my furrows are filled with corn , Em D Em i have my woman to keep me warm , Em C but there’s one thing that i do fear , D Em that eastern wind is getting near , there’s a shotgun beside my bed , this is my country , where i was born and bred , but i Am sure , as the willow will grow , that eastern wind is going to blow , D Em C D Em blowing a hole in my life , eastern wind , D Em C D Em D running away with my life , eastern wind; there’s a woman who reads the stars , she sees warlords on the planet mars , and she said , "boy , you’d better beware , that restless wind is getting near , blowing a hole in your life , eastern wind , running away with your life , eastern wind . . . " C B7 they are coming , they are coming , G they are coming , look out! in my dream , i saw a crowd , they were burning the palace down , i saw a mad old man , and i ran to the door , and then that wind began to roar , and when they come , they’ll find me here , i will not run , they will not see my fear , and i will fight to the very end , before that wind i will never bend , if they’re blowing a hole in my life , eastern wind , oh running away with my life , eastern wind , taking the plough from my hands , eastern wind , taking every bit of my land , eastern wind . . .
