Winter Song

G#m  B  F#  C#m


[Verse 1]

G#m
Where did it begin?
            B
We forgot to mow the lawn
F#
Too much time spent
                     C#m
With electric deck of cards


G#m
Where did it begin?
            B
One day the words were gone
F#
Letters lost and found
             C#m
In someone’s yard


[Bridge]

E         B           F#
Kids fall down in the snow

They used to

E         B           F#
Kids fall down in the snow

They used to


[Chorus]

Continues after the ad
G#m  B  F#  C#m


[Verse 2]

G#m
Shopping carts, a highway
         B
Toward a single spire
F#
Mask and glove and pipe
             C#m
But not much learned


G#m
When you let me in
             B
Against that careless fire
F#
All the farms all the farms

All the freight
              C#m
All the books had burned


[Bridge]

E         B           F#
Kids fall down in the snow

They used to

E         B           F#
Kids fall down in the snow


[Chorus]

G#m  B  F#  C#m
G#m  B  F#  C#m


[Verse 3]

G#m
Scratching out a past
            B
We don’t remember much
F#
Words come apart like
                  C#m
Tendon shattered bone


G#m
Once there was a city
         B
You knew well its touch
F#
Still got the linen but
                       C#m
The memory’s thread is gone


[Bridge]

E         B           F#
Kids fall down in the snow

They used to

E         B           F#
Kids fall down in the snow

They used to

E         B           F#
Kids fall down in the snow ...
