INTRO: G

                                             C     F
We've got a strong love and it's a life-long love 
C     G
Me and you
                                     C   
And when it's tested we can't rest until    
F       C       G          F  C
Trouble blows on through


CHORUS:
          F    C   G                    C 
Storms of love may try to take us down  
            F     C  D     
So we gotta learn to bend
N.C.   C     F           G  
Like a willow____ in the wind  
       F     C           G
Like a willow____ in the wind


                                                C   F
Some hearts are brittle, won't give one little bit       
C      G
So they break
                                             C   F
Our hearts are tender and when we surrender to      
     C        G      F C
That old heartache


CHORUS:
        F    C     G                      C 
We know love grows truer with the tears 
                   F  C      D
And we'll stand in sunlight again
N.C.   C     F           G  
Like a willow____ in the wind  
       F     C           G
Like a willow____ in the wind
 

BRIDGE:
       F     C                                           G
Like a willow_____                                in the wind
         (wisp and tall and true, stands together)
       F     Bb                                               D      
Like a willow_____                                     in the wind
         (with my arms 'round you, we'll sway together)

CHORUS:
          F    C    G                     C   
Storms of love will try to take us down  
                F     C  D
But we've gotta learn to bend
N.C.   C     F           G  
Like a willow____ in the wind

Like a willow____ in the wind

Like a willow____ in the wind  
       F     C   N.C.    G
Like a willow____ in the wind
