          E (022100@1)            BThrough (x2444x@1)a winter evening rain,
  E (022100@1)                  BI (x2444x@1)see the same sky you see at home,

    A (x02220@1)               B (x2444x@1)And Oh how the winter bites,
               EWhen (022100@1)you're so far away,
       BFor (x2444x@1)so long,
For far too long,

Verse 2:(chords as verse 1)

Is my girl still there?
Does she visit you?
Is she still as pretty as ever?
Does she ask for me?
'Cos I long for her,
I need her more than ever,
Tell her it won't be long,
Until I'm home to stay,
And I won't ever go again, 
By her side I'll always stay,
