CATCH THE WIND (Donovan Leitch)
-------------------------------
[Actually in Eb; capo 3.]
[Each chord is one measure.]
C C F G C F C C
[intro]
C C F F
In the chilly hours and minutes
C C F F
Of uncertainty, I want to be
C C F G C C G G
In the warm hold of your loving mind
C C F F
To feel you all around me
C C F F
And to take your hand along the sand
C C F G C F C C
Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind
When sundown pales the sky
I want to hide a while behind your smile
And everywhere I'd look, your eyes I'd find.
For me to love you now
Would be the sweetest thing, 'twould make me sing
Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind.
F F Em Em
Deedee dee dee, dee dee deedee
F F D7/F# D7/F#
Dee dee deedee, dee dee deedee
G G/E G/F G/E
Dee de deeee
When rain has hung the leaves with tears
I want you near to kill my fears
To help me to leave all my blues behind
For standing in your heart
Is where I want to be and long to be
Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind
Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind

this is a good tab man, i don't actually have the song, its on a commercial, and haha i tried to tab it out my self and I capo'ed the first and played D twice then i did this 6- 232 5- 232 2- 232- 0232 now i'm going to make that D thing my song, this tab is obviously correct!!
I couldnt believe it when I found out this was not a Dylan song. From the vocals, to guitar style, to harmonica, this has Dylan written all over it.
donovan was heavily influenced by dylan. its very apparent in many of his songs. they were friends as well.
