"Windfall," by Son Volt, from "Trace" CD
capo 2nd fret

opening riff G, C,  4-0, 4-2, 4-0, 5-3, 5-0, 6-3, repeat

F                                                       G
Now and then, it keeps you runnin', never seems to die.
Am                                               F
Trail spent with fear and not enough livin' on the outside.
F                                                 G
Never seem to get far enough, stayin' in between the lines,
Am                                                         F      F
               F
Hold on to what you can, waitin for the end, not knowin when,

chorus:
F
May the wind take your troubles away
                                                        G
may the wind take your troubles away
          F                                F
Both feet on the floor, two hands on the wheel
G                                                  F
May the wind take your troubles away.

(solo with chorus chord progression)

G                                                     F              F
Try and make it far enough, to the next time zone
G
Few and far between past the midnight hour,
F                      F                                  Am
you never feel alone, you're really not alone.

(solo over chorus chords)

F                             G
Switch it over AM, searchin' for a truer sound
Am                                                        F
can't recall the call letters, steel guitar and settle down
F                                            G
catchin' an all night station, somewhere in Louisiana
Am                                    F      F                    F
Sounds like 1963 but for now,     sounds like heaven.

chorus plus repeat of first line, solo over remaining chorus chords,
then F-G-F-F-G-F and out.
