I remember as a child on a dark and stormy night
Am G
I heard the screen door slam and I was overcome with fright
C G
So afraid that something bad was trying to get in
Em Am D
Then mama came to comfort me and said,
Chorus
D C G
It's only the wind, and nothing more
Em G Em D
Not the end of the world knocking at the door
C G C
So close your eyes and dream again, believe me,
D C
it's only the wind
C G
Well everytime I've had to face a bitter storm of life,
Am G
Those words of comfort were my shelter in the night
C G
But tonight I don't believe I'm able to pretend
Em Am D Em
The storm that you and I are up against is only the wind.

C G
I can hear you downstairs and you're just about to leave
Am G
There's nothing left that I can do to keep you here with me, no
C G
And now the screen door's slammin and I'm frightened once again
Em Am D
What I wouldn't give if I could be convinced
D C G
It's only the wind, and nothing more
Em G Em D
Not the end of the world walking out the door
C G C D C
I wish that I could dream again, believing it's only the wind

Oh and nothing more, not the end of my world
Em D
walking out the door
