Genre: new wave, synthpop, pop


[Verse 1]
G
Common people living quietly in confusion
F C Em
Information's giving quite a grand illusion
G
Hearts are beating, keeping time to meet a deadline
F C Em
Faces pressed against the pane to watch a headline

[Chorus]
G F C D
When the winds blow I will call
G F C D
When the winds blow I will call
G F Bm C
When the winds blow I will call you
Bm Cm G
We will stand and watch them fall

[Verse 2]
G
All our ships are sailing blindly under one sun
F C Em
Sending signals, calling kindly, reaching no-one
G
Echoes sound the shifting air of empires calling
F C Em
Hold my hand, the shifting sand of empires falling

[Chorus]
G F C D
When the winds blow I will call
G F C D
When the winds blow I will call
G F Bm C
When the winds blow I will call you
Bm Cm
We will stand and watch them
Bm Cm G
Oh, we'll stand and watch them fall

[Instrumental bit]
A# - C
A# - C - G - C
G

[Verse 3]
G
We confided, then decided not to follow
F C Em
All the slogans, taunts and charges, sound so hollow
G
With open minds across the border, we have waited
F C Em
But keeping place within this race is complicated

[Chorus]
G F C D
When the winds blow I will call
G F C D
When the winds blow I will call
G F Bm C
When the winds blow I will call you
