Cowboy Junkies – Winters Song (Guitar)

              G
She says it's cold where you brought me

C
  He says darling don't worry

Am
  You can stay in my arms

   D
Until the springtime comes

              G
We'll let the snow drift around us

                 C             Em
And wait for the robin and the crocus

   Am                          D             G
To tell us that our love has again found the sun

C                     D
Lone oak stands tall, bare arms scratch the sky

G                                    C
Dry leaves cracking beneath our feet

C                              D
Hand in hand we've watched the autumn fires burn

Em
Summer's dreams collapsing

Am
Chestnuts in need of gathering

    D                               G
The whole world lies rotting in the street

C#m                        G#m
Soon we will walk with our collars high

C#m                            F#m   A
  Like ramparts raised for the siege

      Bm         E
We'll bow to her beauty,

A              F#m
Cower from her fury

Bm        E
Sent as a judgement

      A                   F#m
for a slight long past forgotten

         E                  F#m
Winter's love once again unrequited

         E                   F#m
Winter's love once again unrequited

         G
She says Babe are you sleeping?

C
 He says, No wide awake and thinking

Am                               D
 Of a dream I just had about the two of us

             G
He takes his hand to her cheek now

    C           Em
His lips to her brow

      Am
Their whispers pile softly

       D           G
By the foot of the bed
