Capo 1st fret


[Chorus]
          
Oh, the waywar

             
d wind, is a r

        
estless wind
             
A restless win

              
d, that yearns

    
 to wander
             
And I was born

              
, the next of 


kin
            
The next of ki

n
             
To the wayward

 
 wind

[Verse]

In a lonely sh

ack by a railr

oad track

I spent my you

nger days

And I guess th

e sound of the

 outward bound
             
Made me a slav

              
e, to my wand'

     
ring ways

[Chorus]
          
Oh, the waywar

             
d wind, is a r

        
estless wind
             
A restless win

              
d, that yearns

    
 to wander
             
And I was born

              
, the next of 


kin
            
The next of ki

n
             
To the wayward

 
 wind

[Outro]
             
To the wayward

 
 wind
             
To the wayward
