Verse 1:
Bbm         Ab                                 Fm             Gb
I heard a glass shatter on the wall in the apartment above mine
Bbm          Ab                  Fm   Gb
At first I thought that I was dreamin'
Bbm                   Ab
But then I heard the voice of a girl
         Fm                    Gb
And it sounded like she'd been cryin'
Bbm           Ab              Fm  Gb
Now I'm too worried to be sleepin'
 
Pre-Chorus:
Bbm                      Ab
So I took the elevator to the second floor
Fm                               Gb
Walked down the hall and then I knocked upon her door
Bbm            Ab                                       Fm   Gb
She opened up and I asked about the things I've been hearing
 
Chorus:
           Bbm                     Ab
She said, "I think your ears are playing tricks on you"
 Fm                       Gb
Sweater zipped up to her chin
Bbm                   Ab
"Thanks for caring, sir, that's nice of you
        Fm             Gb
But I have to go back in
Bbm                        Ab
Wish I could tell you about the noise
        Fm            Gb
But I didn't hear a thing"
           Bbm                       Ab
She said, "It must have been the wind, must have been the wind
                    Fm                           Gb
Must have been the wind, it must have been the wind"
           Bbm                      Ab
She said, "It must have been the wind, must have been the wind
                    Fm                           Gb
Must have been the wind, it must have been the wind"
 
Verse 2:
Bbm              Ab
So I was layin' on the floor of my room
        Fm           Gb
Cold concrete on my back
Bbm           Ab                 Fm  Gb
No, I just couldn't shake the feeling
Bbm                Ab                             Fm            Gb
I didn't want to intrude because I knew that I didn't have all the facts
Bbm             Ab                      Fm   Gb
But I couldn't bear the thought of leavin' her
 
Pre-Chorus:
Bbm                      Ab
So I took the elevator to the second floor
Fm                               Gb
Walked down the hall and then I knocked upon her door
Bbm             Ab                                      Fm  Gb
She opened up and I asked about the things I've been hearing

           Bbm                      Ab
She said, "It must have been the wind, must have been the wind
                     Fm                         Gb
Must have been the wind, it must have been the wind"
           Bbm                      Ab
She said, "It must have been the wind, must have been the wind
                    Fm                          Gb
Must have been the wind, it must have been the wind"
 
Verse 3:
        Bbm                 Ab
Aim my boom box at the roof, I'm playing "lean on me"
   Fm                                Gb
Just so that she knows that she can lean on me
     Bbm                                   Ab              Fm Gb
And when she hears the words, I hope she knows she'll be okay
        Bbm                       Ab
Aim my boom box at the roof, I'm playing "lean on me"
     Fm                   Gb
Just so that she knows that she can lean on me
     Bbm                        Ab                   Fm   Gb
And when she hears the words, I know exactly what I'll say
Bbm              Ab
Promise I'm not playing tricks on you
 Fm                   Gb
You're always welcome to come in
Bbm                   Ab
You could stay here for an hour or two
       Fm        Gb
If you ever need a friend
 
Chorus 2:
Bbm        Ab                         Fm              Gb
We can talk about the noise, when you're ready, but till then
        Bbm                      Ab
I say, "It must have been the wind, must have been the wind
                     Fm                    Gb
Must have been the wind, it must have been the wind"
        Bbm                         Ab
I say, "It must have been the wind, must have been the wind
                     Fm                         Gb
Must have been the wind, it must have been the wind"
