Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:
D
Last night as I slept
    G                  D
I dreamt I met with Behan
     D                           E                  A
I shook him by the hand and we passed the time of day
 D
When questioned on his views
         G                 D
On the crux of life's philosophies
                        G        E       A      D
He had but these few clear and simple words to say

Chorus:
        D         G   D
I am going, I am going
        G           D          E   A
Any which way the wind may be blowing
        D         G   D
I am going, I am going
         G           D          E   A  D
Where streams of whiskey are flowing

Verse 2:
          D
I have cursed, bled and sworn
          G              D
Jumped bail and landed up in jail
     D
Life has often tried to stretch me
 E                  A
But the rope always went slack
      D
And now that I've a pile
       G               D
I'll go down to the Chelsea
       D
I'll walk in on my feet
               E      A     D
But I'll be leaving on my back

Chorus:
              D          G  D
Because I'm going, I am going
       G    D                  E  A
Any which way the wind may be blowing
         D        G  D
I am going, I am going
   G               D          E  A  D
Where streams of whiskey are flowing (yeah!)

Instrumental:

Verse 3:
           D
Oh the words that he spoke
              G           D
Seemed the wisest of philosophies
            G
There's nothing ever gained
       E                  A
By a wet thing called a tear
       D
And when the world is dark
         G               D
And I need the light inside of me
        D
I'll walk into a bar
            E        A        D
And drink fifteen pints of beer


Chorus:
               D          G  D
Because I'm going, I am going
       G    D                  E  A
Any which way the wind may be blowing
       D          G  D
I am going, I am going
   G               D          E  A  D
Where streams of whiskey are flowing

Chorus:
       D          G  D
I am going, I am going
       G    D                  E  A
Any which way the wind may be blowing
        D          G  D
I am going, I am going
   G               D          E  A  D
Where streams of whiskey are flowing

Where streams of whiskey are flowing

Where streams of whiskey are flowing
