#WENDELL GEE
#
> That's when Wendell Gee takes a tug
> Upon the string that held the line of trees
> Behind the house he lived in
> He was reared to give respect
> But somewhere down the line he chose
> To whistle as the wind blows
> Whistle as the wind blows through the leaves
>
> He had a dream one night
> That the tree had lost its middle
> So he built a trunk of chicken wire
> To try to hold it up but the wire the wire turned to lizard skin
> And when he climbed it sagged
> There wasn't even time to say
> Goodbye to Wendell Gee
> So whistle as the wind blows
C G C (second time through, play F)
> Whistle as the wind blows through the leaves
>
> If the wind were colors
> And if the air could speak
> Then whistle as the wind blows
> Whistle as the wind blows
