Winter Kept Us Warm

C   F   C   F

[Verse 1]
       C               F
On the nearside of our window
   Bb                 Dm              Eb     A7
We heard and saw, but never faced the storm
                D             Ab
So far from the way we felt together
  F                         G
Remember how winter kept us warm


[Verse 2]
        C                  F
And the glass combs on the fences
    Bb            Dm                   Eb       A7
The powder on the gate that heaped and spilled
             D                         Ab
Slipped like ash or splintered like an ember
  F                       G
Remember how winter never chilled
            A                            D       B7
And kept us warm so much better than the spring
           Em    G7
The bitter spring___


[Verse 3]
        C                 F
Oh, for weeks outside our window
    Bb                 Dm                 Eb
The snowflakes would parade their perfect form
   A7           D             Ab
So far from the way we felt together
      F                            G
Their melting had to wait upon the weather
  F                         G
Remember how winter kept us warm
