A minorAm
There are some who can still remember

All the things that we used to do
A minorAm
But the days of our youth were numbered
DmDm
And the ones who survive it are few
G+G C majorC FF G+G
Oh, I can still see the smiling faces
When the times were so good
G+G C majorC FF FF
All in the old familiar places
E MajorE
I'd go back if I could (to the)

People of the south wind,(It's the people of the wind) people of the southern wind
DmDm G+G

A minorAm
So I hope that I can always remember
DmDm
All the crazy times we had to go through
G+G C majorC FF G+G
Now it's a dream that is slowly fading
And I don't want it to go

Now I look back and it makes me wonder
Why we just couldn't see
G+G FF G+G
All of the battles we fought and won there
E MajorE
And I wish that I could be with the
A minorAm DmDm G+G
People of the south wind, (It's the people of the wind) people of the southern wind
A minorAm DmDm G+G

People of the south wind, (It's where we used to be free) people of the southern wind
A minorAm DmDm G+G
Ohh, I got to be there again
A minorAm DmDm G+G
People of the south wind, (It's where we used to be free) people of the southern wind
A minorAm DmDm G+G
And that's the place for me
