          A                    E
Just to think I had her in my hands
                     F#m7
To think we made our plans
 B                     D      E
Somehow it feels just like a dream
    A                    E
For I played it so darn cool
                  F#m7
Is there a bigger fool
B                D     E
To say I wanted to be free
       C#m7  F#m         D                E
'Cause now I know just what she meant to me

Chorus:
A                             F#m
Jody, even the wind says your name, girl
                         Dmaj7              C#m7
When I think of you I'm aflame, girl, every time
D                           C#m       D
Jody, girl I've tried but I can't forget
     A
The years when we lived together
F#m7
I thought it would be forever
D     E           F#m  Dmaj7  E
Jody, I'm beggin' now

Look around but there's no way out
What's it all about?
And how that name goes round my head
I still see her face as she laid upon this bed

Chorus:
B                             G#m
Jody, even the wind says your name, girl
                         Emaj7              D#m7
When I think of you I'm aflame, girl, every time
E                           D#m      E
Jody, girl I've tried but I can't forget
     B
The years when we lived together
  G#m7
I thought it would be forever
E     F#          D#m7
Jody, I'm beggin' now

                         E
Just say the word, I'll run to you
C#m7                 B
I'll be the man you want me to
G#m7               C#m       E F#  G#
How I'd miss you I never knew

Chorus:
C#                            A#m
Jody, even the wind says your name, girl
                         F#maj7             Fm7
When I think of you I'm aflame, girl, every time
F#                          Fm       F#
Jody, girl I've tried but I can't forget
    C#
The years when we lived together
  A#m7
I thought it would be forever
F#    G#          C#
Jody, I'm beggin' now

                        A#m
Even the wind says your name, girl
