F
I can hear the wheels of the automobiles

Bb                C                        F             Bb F
So far away, just moving along through the drifting snow

F
It's times like these when the temperatures freeze

  Bb             C                              F
I sit alone just looking at the world through a storm window

    Bb                           F
And down on the beach the sandman sleeps

Bb                          F
Time don't fly it bounds and leaps

Bb                               F
And a country band that plays for keeps

               C
They play it so slow
Chorus:
F              Bb         C
Don't let your baby down

F              Bb         C
Don't let your baby down

F              Bb         C
Don't let your baby down

F
Well the spirits were high til the well went dry

Bb              C                             F
For so long the raven at my window was only a crow

F
I bought the rights to the inside fights

Bb                     C                          F
And watched a man just beating his hand against a storm window

Bb                             F
While miles away o'er hills and streams

Bb                         F
A candle burns, And witch's dreams

Bb                           F
And silence is golden till it screams

                   C
Right through your bones
(Repeat Chorus)
C             Bb                  F
Storm windows Gee but I'm getting old

C            G             C 
Storm window keep away the cold
(Repeat Chorus)
