E                    C7+             G7+             Am   B7
Said the straight man to the late man where have you been       
E               C7+                  G7+             Am   B7                           
I've been here and I've been there and I've been in between
E      G7+         E         G7+
I talk to the wind my words are all carried away
E      G7+         Am             B7       
I talk to the wind the wind does not hear 
Am       B7
The wind cannot hear

I am on the outside looking inside 
What do I see
Much confusion desillusion all around me

I talk to the wind my words are all carried away
I talk to the wind the wind does not hear 
The wind cannot hear

You don't possess me don't impress me
Just upset my mind
Can't destruct me or conduct me
Just use up my time

Hi! I've been reading Elephant Talk (from the Web site) for some time, and
I have something to contribute. One of my friends in Lincoln, NE, worked
out the chords for "I Talk To The Wind"; the "fake sheet" is included in
the last part of this letter. (He also figured out "Cadence And Cascade",
but someone else got them to ET first!) When we play it, he plays piano and
sings, I play bass, and another guy does guitar, so we take liberty with
the arrangement.  (King Crimson is a "standard" band that we play songs
from. Incidentally, "Red" sounds great with a Condor Guitar-Synth ... it
sure sound like it was part of the equipment used!)


E                     C                G               F#m B
Said the straight man to the late man, "Where have you been?"

E                   C                    G              F#m B
"I've been here and I've been there, and I've been in between."

E      Bm              E     Bm                    E      Bm
I talk to the wind, my words are all carried away, I talk to the wind,

    A    Bm                 A    Bm
The wind does not hear, the wind cannot hear.

E                   C               G         F#m B
I'm on the outside, looking inside, what do I see?

E               C            G          F#m B
Much confusion, disillusion, all around me.

I talk to the wind ...

E                    C                      G        F#m B
You don't posess me, don't impress me, just upset my mind,

E                 C                   G         F#m B
Can't instruct me or conduct me, just use up my time.

I talk to the wind ...  <THEN CHORUS repeat then verse, instrumental SOLO:>

Said the straight man to the late man, "Where have you been?"
"I've been here and I've been there and I've been in between."

hmmm... I've always played it like this:

E  G  D  Bsus4  B
E  G  D  Bsus4  B
E  Bm7  E  Bm7  E  Bm7
Am7  B  Am7  B

with the instrumental intro being: E  C  Bm  F#m  B7
