Chord/Tab song: Forty Winters

[F#]Forty [B]winters [F#]cold and [B]dark sur[F#]round you [C#]like a [B]beauty [F#]mark
A [B]tilt of the [F#]axis says [B]that time of [F#]year
And the [B]flush of your [F#]cheekbones says [B]no damage [F#]here
The [B]first time I [F#]saw you twas i[B]ce on the [F#]ground
A [B]girl in a [F#]green house meant [B]paradise [F#]found
[B]For [F#]Forty [B]Winters[F#], [B] [F#]forty [B]Winters[F#][B]
[F#]Forty [B]winters[F#], [B] [F#]forty [B]winters[F#][B]

Forty winters straight in line were you not my valentine
Orange Blossom's Sandalwood Oak Moss and Musk
Fragrant the senses from daylight till dusk
You made the simple life fit for a king
And oatmeal by candle light a beautiful thing
For Forty Winters, forty Winters
Forty winters, forty winters

[B]Why can't I break the spel[Bbm]l shake you and make you well
[Ebm]What is it blinding me that [F#]keeps you from finding me
[B]I know you're in there, yo[Bbm]u haven't gone somewhere
[Ebm]God only knows about [F#]leaving me frozen out
[Abm]Darlin' I can promise you this I wont let you drown in the mist

Forty winters cold and drear could not age you one short year
It's like your trapped 'neath a bell jar as big as the earth
And I'm running to reach you for all that I'm worth
I'll bathe you and feed you and tend to your grace
But don't make me leave you in such a dark place

I'm drunk on the bitterness sorrow demands
And I know that tomorrow is out of my hands
Until were together I'll sleep in the snow
I'll love you forever and that's all I know about
Forty Winters, forty Winters
Forty winters, forty winters
