Song For a Winters Night



[G] [D] [Em] [C]  [G] [D] [G] [D]




[VERSE 1]

[G]The lamp is [D]burnin' low [Em]upon my table [C]top,

[G]The snow is [D]softly [G]falling[D]

[G]The air is [D]still within the [Em]silence of my [C]room,

[G]I hear your [D]voice softly [G]calling 

[CHORUS]

If I could [D]only [C]have you [D]near,

[Bm]To breathe a [Em]sigh or [D]two

[G]I would be [D]happy just to [Em]hold the hands I [C]love,

[G]Upon this [D]winter night with [G]you 


 
[G] [D] [Em] [C]  [G] [D] [G] [D]



[VERSE 2]

[G]The smoke is [D]rising in the [Em]shadows over[C]head,

[G]My glass is [D]almost empty

[G]I read [D]again between the [Em]lines upon each [C]page,

[G]The words of [D]love you sent me 

[CHORUS]
 
If I could [D]only [C]have you [D]near,

[Bm]To breathe a [Em]sigh or [D]two

[G]I would be [D]happy just to [Em]hold the hands I [C]love,

[G]Upon this [D]winter night with [G]you 


 
[G] [D] [Em] [C]  [G] [D] [G] [D]



[VERSE 3]

[G]The fire is [D]dying now, my [Em]lamp is growing [C]dim,

[G]The shades of [D]night are [G]liftin[D]

[G]The morning [D]light steals [Em]across my window[C]pane,

[G]Where webs of [D]snow are [G]driftin
 
[CHORUS]

If I could [D]only [C]have you [D]near,

[Bm]To breathe a [Em]sigh or [D]two

[G]I would be [D]happy just to [Em]hold the hands I [C]love,

[G]Upon this [D]winter night with [G]you 
 
[G] [D] [Em] [C]  [G] [D] [G] [D]
