WINTER LADY- Leonard Cohen

D+4        Amaj7 D+4      C
Traveling lady   stay awhile
D+4         Amaj7   D+4
Until the night is over
D+4          Amaj7 D+4      C
I'm just a station on your way
   D+4       Amaj7     D+4
I know I am not your lover

CHORUS #1:
       D+              Am7
Well, I lived with a child of snow
D+             Am7
When I was a soldier
    D+              Am7
And I fought every man for her
  D+                     Am7
Until the nights grew colder

She used to wear her hair like you
Except when she was sleeping
And then she'd weave it on a loom
Of smoke and gold and breathing

CHORUS #2:
And why are you so quiet now
Standing there in the doorway?
You chose your journey long before
You came upon this highway

Traveling lady stay awhile
Until the night is over
I'm just a station on your way
I know I am not your lover
