Verse 1: A Amaj7 A/F# A7 When Winter's shadowy fingers first pursue you down the street D Dmaj7 Bm7/F# D7 And your boots no longer lie about the cold around your feet G Gmaj7/F# E7 Do you spare a thought for Summer whose passage is complete A Amaj7 A/F# Whose memories lie in ruins and whose ruins lie in heat Dm Dsus2 E7 Aadd9 E11 A Asus4add6 A Asus4add6 When Winter...... comes howl- ing in. Verse 2: A Amaj7 A/F# A7 When the wind is singing strangely, blowing music through your head D Dmaj7 Bm7/F# D7 And your rain-splattered windows make you de-cide to stay in bed G Gmaj7/F# E7 Do you spare a thought for the homeless tramp who wishes he was dead A Amaj7 A/F# Or do you pull your bed-clothes higher, dream of Summertime instead, Dm Dsus2 E7 Aadd9 E11 A Asus4add6 A Asus4add6 When Winter...... comes howl--ing in. Verse 3: The creeping cold has fingers that caress without permission And mystic crystal snowdrops only aggravate the condition Do you spare a thought for the gypsy with no secure position Who's turned and spurned by village and town and the Magistrate's decision, When Winter.... comes howling in. Verse 4: When the turkey's in the oven and the Christmas presents are bought And Santa's in his module - he's an American astronaut - Do you spare a thought for Jesus, who had nothing but his thoughts, Who got busted - just for talking, and befriending the wrong sorts, When Winter.... comes howling in. Dm Dsus2 E7 Aadd9 E11 When Winter...... comes howling in. Outro (much the same as the Intro!)
