D   A7 Edim C#m7-5           F#7    B7
Blow,              ill wind, blow away, 

Bbm9    A  Edim   D   B7
Let me rest to - day;

       G9      G  A7 Edim D   A7 Edim  D  Am7  D
You're blow - in' me  no good,            no good.


D   A7 Edim C#m7-5           F#7   B7
Go,                ill wind, go away, 

Bbm9      A  Edim  D   B7
Skies are oh so  gray

   G9  G    A7   Edim    D   A7 Edim  D  C   C/B    Am7 D   Am7 A7+5  D
Around my neigh - bor - hood,            and that's no good.


Bridge:

       F#7      Cdim         F#7         Cdim
You're only misleadin' the sunshine I'm needin',

E7/9  Cdim E7  E7/9
Ain't that  a shame

     F#7         Cdim         F#7           Gdim Cdim
It's so hard to keep up with troubles that creep  up

     E7/9      E7    Bbm9            A7
From out of nowhere, when love's to blame.


D   A7 Edim C#m7-5           F#7   B7
So,               ill wind, blow away; 

Bbm9     A  Edim   D
Let me rest  to - day;

       G9      G  A7 Edim  D A7 Edim  D  
You're blow - in' me  no good, 

Am7  D   Am7 A7+5  D6
No  good.
