            WIND OF CHANGE - Scorpions
Tabbed by: DJ Inferno
[Intro]
F  Dm  F  Dm  Am   Dm*  Am*  G*  C !
[Verse 1]
(C)              Dm
 I follow the Moskva
               C
 Down to Gorky Park
                  Dm*      Am*  G*  C !
 Listening to the wind of change
(C)               Dm
 An August summer night
                  C
 Soldiers passing by
                  Dm*      Am*  G*
 Listening to the wind of change
[Interlude]
F  Dm  F  Dm  Am   Dm*  Am*  G*  C !
[Verse 2]
(C)                   Dm
 The world is closing in
              C
 Did you ever think
                     Dm*          Am*    G*  C !
 That we could be so close, like brothers
(C)                  Dm
 The future's in the air
                    C
 I can feel it everywhere
                  Dm*      Am*  G*
 Blowing with the wind of change
[Chorus]
C     G         Dm           G
 Take me to the magic of the moment
      C     G
On a glory night
          Dm            G             Am
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
 F               G         C
In the wind of change
[Verse 3]
C                 Dm
 Walking down the street
             C
 Distant memories
                   Dm*     Am*  G*  C !
 Are buried in the past forever
(C)              Dm
 I follow the Moskva
               C
 Down to Gorky Park
                  Dm*      Am*  G* 
 Listening to the wind of change
[Chorus]
C     G         Dm           G
Take me to the magic of the moment
      C     G
On a glory night
          Dm            G                  Am
Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams
      F !     G !
With you and me
C     G         Dm           G
Take me to the magic of the moment
      C     G
On a glory night
          Dm            G             Am
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
       F !     G !
In the wind of change
[Bridge]
Am                        G
 The wind of change blows straight
                  Am
Into the face of time
                           G
Like a stormwind that will ring
                              C
The freedom bell for peace of mind
                   Dm
Let your balalaika sing
                        E
What my guitar wants to say
[Solo]
F  G  E  Am  F  G  Am
F  G  E  Am  Dm  E
[Chorus]
C     G         Dm           G
Take me to the magic of the moment
      C     G
On a glory night
          Dm            G                  Am
Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams
      F !     G !
With you and me
C     G         Dm           G
Take me to the magic of the moment
      C     G
On a glory night
          Dm            G             Am
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
       F !     G !
In the wind of change
[Outro]
F  Dm  F  Dm  Am  Dm
(NOTES)
1) When a chord is followed by a !, it means that you do not strum the chord
but instead you play it in one quick downward motion.
2) When a chord is followed by a *, it means that the chord has to be plucked.
The plucking pattern is given below.
(PLUCKING PATTERN)
The plucking progression for Dm, Am and G goes like this
     Dm         Am          G
