[Verse]
               Am       C          G
Please don't ask me to swim that river
              Am          C         G
Please don't ask me for silver and gold
                   Em           C     G
I can't give you things that I can't deliver
                   Am    C                   G   Am
But I'll keep you warm  when the nights are cold

             Am                      G
The moon is high and the stars are blinking
                 Am             G
The clouds are drifting so slow and low
                  Em    C          G
And I just can't keep myself from thinking
                    Am   C                   G
That I'll keep you warm when the nights are cold

Em            Am              C        G
The moon is gone now and the rain is falling
                 Am              Am
The clouds are drifting so slow and low
         Em            C         G
And the fire is dying logs are falling
                   Am    C             G     Em
But I'll keep you warm  when the night is cold

             Am         C         G
Please don't ask me to swim that river
             Am           C        G
Please don't ask me for silver and gold
                   Em           C     G
I can't give you things that I can't deliver
                   Am    C                   G
But I'll keep you warm  when the nights are cold
                Am    C                   G  Em
I'll keep you warm  when the nights are cold
