The tenderness of spring took my hand and walked with me
F
G7
C
And bathed me in the showers of her love
F
C
Whatever dream I dared Virginia made me know she cared
F
G7
C
With loveliness as gentle as a dove
F
G7
C
Her tender love can’t see the wildness in the depths of me
G7
C
And who would dare to hurt the gentle kind
F
G7
C
But no woman can control the burning wildness in my soul
F
G7
C
That roars like the whirlwinds of my mind
F
G7
C
Whirlwinds of my mind that keep turning
F
G7
C
With each turning thought I still find
F
C
Passing in review all the things we use to do
G7
C
Virginia you’re a whirlwind of my mind
F
C
The early summer sun found me with another one
F
G7
C
Burning out the wildest mount of flame
F
C
Judy was the kind that could cool my burning mind
F
G7
C
And never feel reproach upon her name
F
G7
C
We laughed the summer through doing what we cared to do
G7
C
Knowing we would leave it all behind
F
G7
C
And with a change of heart felt the urge to drift apart
F
G7
C
Drifting like the whirlwinds of my mind
F
G7
C
Whirlwinds of my mind that keep turning
F
G7
C
With each turning thought I still find
F
C
Passing in review all the laughter that we knew
G7
C
With nothing but the whirlwinds of my mind
F
C
The autumn winds that fell the leaves then chill my wild desires
F
G7
C
And tame my heart in nature’s fertile seed
F
C
With broken mind and will Charlotte’s beauty made me thrill
F
G7
C
Then bound my heart in love so helplessly
F
G7
C
A tune of moving on seemed to be her favorite song
G7
C
Her wandering ways I just couldn’t seem to bind
F
G7
C
And with the winter snow she wandered on and left me cold
F
G7
C
With nothing but the whirlwinds of my mind
F
G7
C
Whirlwinds that turn back for the spring and summer
F
G7
C
And to an autumn love I couldn’t bind
F
C
And as each whirlwind dies much too late I realize
G7
C
I’ve nothing but the whirlwinds of my mind
F
G7
C
