A Asus2 A D A Caught like a deer in my own headlights,
A Asus2 A E Frozen on this road tonight.
A Asus2 A D A I had a fix on the brightest star,
A Asus2 A E A Now I'm not sure where you are. [Bridge 1]
D A North is south and east is west,
D A E Where's the love that I knew best?
A Asus2 A D A Shifting in this i-cy wind,
A Asus2 A E A Howlin' down the Cumberland. [Interlude]

A Asus2 A D A You're in this val- ley that I love,
A Asus2 A A E Cold and far as the stars a-bove.
A Asus2 A D A Do I have to wait 'till spring is here,
A Asus2 A E A Just to hold you warm and near? [Bridge 2]
D A Dead of winter, dead of night,
D A E Not much time to make it right.
A Asus2 A D A I know where that lone- some sound begins,
A Asus2 A E A Howlin' down the Cumberland. [Interlude]

A Asus2 A D A Just a crea- ture in the dark,
A Asus2 A E Longing for one blessed spark.
A Asus2 A D A To burn the sky and heed the night,
A Asus2 A E A With love re- born by morning light. [Bridge 3]
D A But nature doesn't heed the call,
D A E Nature just commands that's all.
A Asus2 A D A Now my love's a cutting wind,
A Asus2 A E A Howlin' down the Cumberland. [Other]
A Asus2 A D A Now my love's a cutting wind,
A Asus2 A E A Howlin' down the Cumberland. [End]
