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

Interlude: 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
