[INTRO]
[A] [D]

[VERSE]
On wings of the wind o'er the dark rolling [A]sea
Angels are coming to watch over [D]thee
Angels are coming to watch o'er thy [A]sleep
So list' to the wind coming over the [D]deep

[CHORUS]
Hear the wind blow, love, hear the wind [A]blow
Lean your head over and hear the wind [D]blow

[VERSE]
The currachs are sailing way out on the [A]blue
Laden with herring of silvery [D]hue
Oh, silver the herring, silver the [A]sea
Soon there'll be silver for baby and [D]me

[CHORUS]
Hear the wind blow, love, hear the wind [A]blow
Lean your head over and hear the wind [D]blow
Hear the wind blow, love, hear the wind [A]blow
Lean your head over and hear the wind [D]blow

[VERSE]
The currachs tomorrow will stand on the [A]shore
And Daddy goes sailing, a-sailing no [D]more
The nets will be drying, the net's heaven [A]blessed
And safe in my arms, contended he'll [D]rest

[CHORUS]
Hear the wind blow, love, hear the wind [A]blow
Lean your head over and hear the wind [D]blow
Hear the wind blow, love, hear the whi[A]sper
Lean your head over and hear the wind [D]blow
