Version 1[Intro] Em G D A x2 [Verse] Em G Ever since the days of old D A Men would search for wealth untold Em G They'd dig for silver and for gold D A And leave the empty holes; Em G And way down south in the Everglades D A Where the black water rolls and the saw grass waves Em G The eagles fly and the otters play D A In the land of the Seminole; [Chorus] Em G So blow, blow Seminole wind D A Blow like you're never gonna blow again; Em G I'm callin' to you like a long-lost friend D A But I know who you are; Em G And blow, blow from the Okeechobee D A All the way up to Micanopy Em G Blow across the home of the Seminole D A The alligators and the gar Em G D A x2 [Verse] Em G Progress came and took its toll D A And in the name of flood control Em G They made their plans and they drained the land D A Now the Glades are goin' dry Em G And the last time I walked in the swamp D A I stood up on a cypress stump Em G I listened close and I heard the ghost D A Of Osceola cry [Chorus] Em G So blow, blow Seminole wind D A Blow like you're never gonna blow again; Em G I'm callin' to you like a long-lost friend D A But I know who you are; Em G And blow, blow from the Okeechobee D A All the way up to Micanopy Em G Blow across the home of the Seminole D A The alligators and the gar [Outro] Em G D A x3 (half time) Em G D A x2 Em
