Ever The Winds Acoustic tab by Tommy Makem

Am       G           Am           Em
As I went a walking way down by the green wood
C              G        Am       Em
Down where the ivy and laurel entwine,
  C            G           Am             Em
I heard a bird singing his sad, plaintive love song;
   Am              Em                     Am
He mourned for his true love as I mourned mine,
Chorus
C        G             Am             Em
Ever the winds keep on changing their journey
C                      Am           Em
Ever the waves keep on changing the sea
C          G            Am          EM
Ever green summer keeps changing to autumn;
   Am            Em                                Am
My true love has changed, But there's no change in me

  Am              G       Am               EM
I brought my love flowers all tied up with ribbons
C              G            Am        Em
Soon the sweet flowers were faded and gone,
         C          G              Am           Em
Like the flowers my true love's affections have withered
      Am        Em                        Am
Which leaves me alone here to pine and to mourn.
Chorus
C        G             Am             Em
Ever the winds keep on changing their journey
C                      Am           Em
Ever the waves keep on changing the sea
C          G            Am          Em
Ever green summer keeps changing to autumn;
   Am            Em                                Am
My true love has changed, But there's no change in me

   Am          G       Am          Em
My constant companions sadness and sorrow;
C           D         Am      Em
Trouble has never forsaken me yet.
        C      G          Am           Em
But wherever I go till my days are all numbered,
    Am         Em                    Am
The love of my soul I will never forget.
Chorus
C        G             Am             Em
Ever the winds keep on changing their journey
C                      Am           Em
Ever the waves keep on changing the sea
C          G            Am          Em
Ever green summer keeps changing to autumn;
   Am            Em                                Am
