Intro: / A - - - / D – Asus2 - / E – Esus4 - / D - - - / (x2)
A D Asus2
I put on my overcoat and
E Esus4 D
walked into winter - my teeth chattered rhythms
A D Asus2 And they were grouped in twos or threes, like a
E Esus4 D

Me. And cars on slippery slopes were stuck: people
E Esus4 D

A D Asus2

E Esus4 D (x2 measures) colder with every step i took to your apartment, dear.

A D Asus2

E Esus4 D (x2 measures)

F#5 Dm/maj7
