Let The Four Winds Choose Song Lyrics and Chords by Hank Thompson

 

Let The Four Winds Choose
Recorded by Hank Thompson
Written by Hank Thompson and Presley Lewis
C 
North south  
F 
east or west
 
I  
G7 
just can't figure which a  
C 
way is best
 
I'm a ramblin' man not  
F 
much to lose
G7 
I just wait and let the  
C 
four winds choose
 
Well I blew up north to a  
F 
mining 
 
town
 
I  
G7 
met a little gal thought I'd  
C 
settle 
 
down
 
She offered me love with a  
F 
silver and gold
 
But the  
G7 
north wind came and my  
C 
feet got cold
repeat #1
 
Well I roamed down south  
F 
to 
 
Lousiann
 
I  
G7 
won me a rig from a  
C 
wildcat 
 
man
 
But I'm glad I left when the  
F 
first wind came
 
When  
G7 
next three winds brought a  
C 
hurricane
repeat #1
 
Well I went back east to the  
F 
Hudson 
 
Bay
 
I  
G7 
found me a place I thought I'd  
C 
like to stay
 
But I smelt the salt from the  
F 
ocean 
 
breeze
 
I  
G7 
wound up a sailin' on the  
C 
seven 
 
seas
repeat #1
 
Well an ill wind a blew me a  
F 
way out west
 
A
G7 
cross the desert and the  
C 
mountain 
 
crest
 
Over one more hill I'm  
F 
bound to find
 
The  
G7 
very same thing I  
C 
left 
 
behind
repeat #1
 
Now when I die don't  
F 
bury 
 
me
G7 
Hang me high in a  
C 
tall tall tree
 
My bones won't rest in the  
F 
ground 
 
below
 
They  
G7 
just gotta move when the  
C 
four winds blow
repeat #1 x2

Who is Hank Thompson?
- Henry William Thompson (September 3, 1925 - November 6, 2007) was an American country music singer-songwriter and musician whose career spanned seven decades.
Thompson's musical style, characterized as honky-tonk Western swing, was a mixture of fiddles, electric guitar, and steel guitar that featured his distinctive, smooth baritone vocals.
His backing band, The Brazos Valley Boys, was voted the top Country Western Band for 14 years in a row by Billboard. Thompson pursued a "light" version of the Western swing sound that Bob Wills and others played the primary difference between his music and that of Bob Wills was that Thompson, who used the swing beat and instrumentation to enhance his vocals, discouraged the intense instrumental soloing from his musicians that Wills encouraged however, the "Hank Thompson sound" exceeded Bob Wills in top-40 country hits.
Although not as prominent on the top country charts in later decades, Thompson remained a recording artist and concert draw well into his 80s.
The 2013 game Grand Theft Auto V featured his song "It Don't Hurt Anymore" in the fictional radio show, Rebel Radio.
The 1987 novel Crazy Heart by Thomas Cobb was inspired by Thompson's life, specifically by his practice of picking up a local band to back him when he toured. In 2009, Cobb's novel was turned into a successful film directed by Scott Cooper and starring Jeff Bridges in an Academy Award-winning performance.
