The wind is blowing ‘cross the mountains
And down o’er the valley way below
It sweeps the grave of my darlin’
When I die that’s where I want to go
Lord send the angels for my darlin’
And take her to that home on high
I’ll wait my time out here on earth love
And come to you when I die
Our names are carved upon the tombstone
I promised you before you died
Our love will bloom forever darlin’
When we rest side by side
I hear a voice out in the darkness
It moans and whispers through the pines
I know it’s my sweetheart a-callin’
I hear her through the walls of time
[1] The wind is blowing ‘cross the mountains
And down o’er the valley way [4] below
It [1] sweeps the grave of my darlin’
When I [4] die that’s where I want to [1] go
Lord send the angels for my darlin’
And take her to that home on high
I’ll wait my time out here on earth love
And come to you when I die
Our names are carved upon the tombstone
I promised you before you died
Our love will bloom forever darlin’
When we rest side by side
I hear a voice out in the darkness
It moans and whispers through the pines
I know it’s my sweetheart a-callin’
I hear her through the walls of time
