A Dandelion Dies In The Wind chords by Elton John

• Difficulty: Intermediate

Key: Am

♫ Intro:

Am G Am G




♫ Verse 1:
Am          G    D
See my eyes and I see my arms
         Am
The seagulls say you've gone
F               C
It was just a game of let's pretend
Bb          C         F
And I whistle to the waves that lend me tears

♫ Chorus:
        Dm
Purple clouds, golden rain
A7
Yesterday has gone
   Gm    Bb     C
And a dandelion dies in the wind


♫ Verse 2:
Am            G  D
If you're quick enough to rise
               Am
With the sleep still in your eyes
F                     C
You'll see the shadow of the sun above my mind
 Bb       C        F
I know that only you can help me now


♫ Chorus:
        Dm
Purple clouds, golden rain
A7
Yesterday has gone
   Gm    Bb     C
And a dandelion dies in the wind


♫ Bridge:
D
 But a dandelion sighs
    G
And it tries to tell the wind
   A       G
That crying's not a bad thing
F       C
Worrying is a sin
Dm            Bb
If they sent a cloud from my heaven
A7          Dm
I would ride into the skies
          Bb
To escape all of my troubles
A           Dm C
And to cast away your lies


♫ Chorus:
F         Dm
Purple rains have turn to gold
  A
The clouds of yesterday
   Gm    Bb     C
And a dandelion dies in the wind


♫ Verse 3:
 Am          G    D
I see my eyes and I see my arms
         Am
The seagulls say you've gone
F               C
It was just a game of let's pretend
Bb          C         F
And I whistle to the waves that lend me tears


Out-♫ Chorus:
F       Dm
Purple clouds, golden rain
A7
Yesterday has gone
   Gm    Bb     C
And a dandelion dies in the wind
   Gm7    Bb     C
And a dandelion dies in the wind
   Gm7    Bb     C  D
And a dandelion dies in the wind
