 Intro:  G  F  (repeat)
 
 Verse 1
    C     Em7          Am   G
 My heavy heart pounds hard tonight
           F
 Down this highway in the wind
     G
 The windshield wipers clean away
     Am          C
 The tears I cry within
     C         Em7    Am      G
 The Love I've thrown away, I know,
      F
 I'll never feel again...
     G  F                        C
 And I, I'm just Twistin' in the Wind
 
 
 Chorus:
 G
 Some one cut me down from here
         F                C
 I can't prove what don't exist
 G
 Did you feel the same as I?
              Am                     G
 Or was there something I might have missed?
   F                 C
 I turned my back on everyone
     F            C
 Who wanted me to win
   F             C 
 I needed you so bad, I guess
            Am             G
 That's the way I was back then
 G      F                        C
 Now I, I'm just Twistin' in the Wind
 
 Verse 2
 I believe I'll go down to the bridge
 And watch the trains roll by
 See the sparks fly from their wheels
 Where the rocks and the cinders lie
 The weight I feel inside tonight
 Could put a freight train in a spin
 And I, I'm just Twistin' in the Wind
 
 Repeat Chorus
 
 Verse 3
 Love made a fool of me
 At the gates of the  guillotine
 I can't believe I heard the Truth
 Comin' from  your answering machine
 How did I become this broken man?
 Was I too blind to bend?
 Now I, I'm just Twistin' in the Wind
 I, yi yi yi, I'm just Twistin' in the Wind
 
 G      
 Some one cut me down from here
        F                C
 I been Hangin' here too long
 G
 Release me from the Binds of Love
   F                     C
 I can't tell Right from Wrong
 
 Note - The C-Em7-Am-G-F progression
