Heels of the Wind
Music by Elton John
Lyrics by Bernie Taupin
Available on the Album The Fox
C F/C (over and over again)
G/B
Am G/B C G/B
Just like a broken marriage, when two people just don't care
Am GB C
Like when the cupboard is empty or there's no food in the Frigidaire
G
I'm a page from the end of the story
F
No closer to my hope and glory
Dm Em F CG G C (play intro)
Just a kick away from the heels of the wind
Am GB C GB
How come it gets so disturbing, when two ships pass in the storm
Am GB C
Who knows how high the crow flies, who knows where this refugee was born
G
I'm a page from the end of the story
F
No closer to my hope and glory
Dm Em F CG G C (play intro)
Just a kick away from the heels of the wind
F CE Dm C
And just for the sake of all these reasons
F CE Dm C
Rains wash out the fires within
F Em E7G# Am
Fires that help to keep you moving
Dm Em F CG G C (play intro)
Just a kick away from the heels of the wind
You don't deserve that treatment, I can't pretend I was that nice
I'm no E ticket ride to Disneyland, I'm no cushy first class flight
I'm a day behind your restless wings
You, you rather have the wealth of kings
Me, I'd rather be on the heels of the wind
C FC C FC C C FC C FC
Just a kick away, yeah
Dm Em F CG G C (play intro)
Just a kick away from the heels of the wind.
