  No one promised this when I was a kid
D                               Cmaj7
  When my days were filled with carousels
Am7                      D
    Fairground rides and cockleshells
D                        Cmaj7
  Kicking pebbles on the beach
Am7                    D
    When time couldn't reach me
D                       Cmaj7
  And tears were just a memory
Am7            D
    Left to be lonely

G (E) C#dim
            Now days
D                    Cmaj7
  Catch me without an overcoat
D                    Cmaj7
  Five o'clock shoes full of snow
Am7                  D
    All rained out nowhere to go

   Oh this winter sure sure gets me down
Am7                     D
    When there ain't no friends around
