verse 1 Bm Am I wandered far onto the lonely moors Bm Am Sparse coarse tufts of grass reached out to trip me C D And above my head the leaden clouds hung low Em As I turned my face into the wind verse 2 Bm Am I huddled close against a tumbling wall Bm Am Wrapped in a cloak, to shield me from the bitter cold C D The solitude weighed heavy on my mind Em As I turned my face into the wind Bridge Am Em The mist rolled down across the countryside Am Em I thought I heard the coastal sirens sound D Em As I turned my face into the wind Instrumental Am Em Am Em D Em verse 3 Bm Am I tried to peer into the deepening gloom Bm Am To glimpse a lighted window in the distance C D But just too far to penetrate the rain Em AS I turned my face into the wind verse 4 Bm Am Yet somehow I sensed her presence near Bm Am And tufts of sheep's-wool hanging from a gorse bush C D Were as though her hands were beckoning me home Em As I turned my face into the wind
