Chords by: Ted Saxlid.

Intro: D  A  D  A  D  A  E  D  E


           D                                 A
And it sure been a cold, cold winter
            D                                             A
and the wind ain't been blowin' from the south.
       D                                A
It's sure been a cold, cold winter
          D                     A
and a lotta love is all burned out.


    D                                 A
It sure been a hard, hard winter,
       D                                          A
my feet been draggin' 'cross the ground.
          D                                             A
And I hope it's gonna be a long, hot summer,
          E           D                        E
and a lotta love will be burnin' bright.


          D                           E
And I wish I been out in California
                D
E
when the lights on all the Christmas trees went out.
                  D                                        E
But I been burnin' my bell, book and candle,
             D                                              E
and the restoration plays have all gone 'round.


D                             A
It sure been a cold, cold winter,
D                                  A
my feet been draggin' 'cross the ground.
D                                                          A
And the fields has all been brown and fallow,
             E                         D             E
and the springtime take a long way around.


          D                                               E
Yeah, and I wish I been out in Stone Canyon
               D
E
when the lights on all the Christmas trees went out.
                  D                                        E
But I been burnin' my bell, book and candle,
             D                                              E
and the restoration plays have all gone 'round.


Alternate between D and A chords for the rest of the song

Sometimes I think about you, baby,
Sometimes I cry about you.
Sometimes I wanna wrap my coat around you,
Sometimes I wanna keep you warm.
Sometimes I wanna wrap my coat around you,
Sometimes I wanna but I can't afford you.
