Winter

Words & Music:

Joshua Radin

 

[capo 5]  Am  F  C  G [2x]

 

Am  F           C      G 

   I should know who I am by now.

Am  F    C           G            Am        F         C G

   I walk the record stand somehow, thinkin' of winter.

Am           F                 C       G       C  G  Am  G

   Your name is the splinter inside me while I wait.

 

CHORUS:

Dm             G           C                     F

   And I remember the sound of your November downtown.

Dm             G            C                     F

   And I remember the truth:  a warm December with you,

      G             C            F

But I don't have to make this mistake,

      G             C         F                   C

And I don't have to stay this way if only I would wake...

 

The walk has all been cleared by now.

Your voice is all I hear somehow calling out winter.

Your voice is the splinter inside me while I wait.

 

CHORUS:

 

BRIDGE:

Am   G          F      C

   I could have lost myself

   Am         G      F       C        Am G         C

In rough blue waters in your eyes; and I  miss you still.

 

CHORUS:  [replace "if only I could wake" with "if only I could wait"]

 

Am  G  F  C [hold]
