Lindsey said that those were definitely Stevie's words. Although, she said he wrote a line. Dee was right about the line being "Listen to the wind blow." That's all she said he wrote. Stevie went on:

That’s it. I had wrote, “if you never love me now, you will never love me again” a year before for something else, but it had the same melody. Lindsey said “can we use it” and I said “well you realize in taking “if you don’t love me now” you are ruining my song cause you are taking the chorus out of it.” Well he didn’t care that much and that was my chain idea because I was the one that decided that this was a definite chain going on here. There was a reason that the links in this chain were holding together and it became a real theme song for Fleetwood Mac.”

The Chain started as the tail end of a jam and we did it all the wrong way round. We kept the end bit and added a new beginning. We used Stevie's lyrics, I created the chorus and Lindsey did the verses. I really don't know how it all came together.
