If anyone has any corrections to the words (or the music for that matter), please e-mail me and I'll make the corrections and re- submit the song to the archive. Thanks in advance for any help. Good playing, Lance Newhart; Austin, TX WINTER SONG, The Screaming Trees VERSE 1 A E Jesus knockin' on my door D A late last night and early this morning A E window glass, rusted and weary, D A I went straight thru, didn't hear no warning PRECHORUS A G D Just a roll of the dice and a precious fight Bring you around, its easier A G D When I'm wastin' my time and when I'm losin' my mind, G D E oh my mind CHORUS D A Try to wait for the sky to fall D A It's gone now see it all D A E A Whisper some winter in your heart, yea yea yeah INTERLUDE (SOLO) A D (repeat 4x) VERSE 2 A E Dead end street, just out my back door D A I heard once seen a young girl laughin' A E Now rain drops fall, away like souls D A I wonder if she ever heard mine dyin' REPEAT PRECHORUS REPEAT CHORUS TWICE END A E D A Jesus knockin' on my door, one last time early this mornin'.
