VERSE 1:
The [F] nights are [C] cold-[F]-er [Bb] now [Am] Maybe I should close the [Bb] door
And anyway the [F] snow
has [C] covered all your [Dm] footsteps
and [Bb] I can follow you no [C] more
VERSE 2:
The [F] fire still [C] burns [F] at [Bb] night
My [Am] memories are warm and [Bb] clear
But everybody [F] knows
it's [C] hard to be a-[Bb]-lone
at this [C] time of [F] year [F open]
CHORUS 1:
It was [F] only a winter's [C7] tale [F] Just another winter's [Bb] tale
and [F] why should the world take [Bb] notice
of [F] one more love that's [C7] failed
CHORUS 2:
It's a [F] love that could never [C7] be
Though it [F] meant a lot to you and [Bb] me
On a [F] world wide scale, we're [C] just
another [C7] winter's [F] tale
VERSE 3: [F] While I [C] stand [F] a-[Bb]-lone
A [Am] bell is ringing far a-[Bb]-way
I wonder if you [F] hear
I [C] wonder if you're [Dm] listening
I [Bb] wonder where you are to-[C]-day
VERSE 4:
Good [F] luck, I [C] wish [F] you [Bb] well
For [F] all that wishes may be [Bb] worth
I hope that love and [F] strength
are [C] with you for the [Bb] length
of your [C] time on [F] Earth [F open]
