Tabbed by: Don Tago

Standard Tuning: [Capo II]

Intro: [ C - F - G ] x3

Verse 1:
C           F  G        C    F      G       C     
On a winter Sunday I go   to clear away the snow
    F         G      C      F  G
And green the ground below
C             F  G       C
April, holler or shutter way
   F               G                C    F           G         C    F  G
Is this the better way to spend the day, keeping the winter at bay?


Chorus 1:
F              G                C              F
Where were the words I meant to say before you left
F                     C                             G
When I could see your breathe lead where you were going to
C              F    G      C
Maybe I should just let it be
   F             G                C
Or maybe it will all come back to me
       F      G     C
Sing, "Oh, January, oh"


Verse 2: [use verse 1 chords]
How I lived a childhood in snow, and all my teams in tow
Stuffed in strata of clothes
Hail the winter days after dark
Wandering the great memorial park, a fleeting beating of hearts 

Chorus: [use chorus 1 chords]
Where were the words I meant to say before she left
When I could see your breathe lead where she was going to
Maybe I should just let it be
And maybe it will all come back to me
       F      G   F      G     C   
Sing, "Oh, Janu-, oh, January, oh"
