Joe Purdy, Santa Rosa in the Snow no capo, standard tuning C5 G5 C5 G5 1. C5 Happy New Year Santa Rosa here I am F5 C5 I was brought in by the weather and the cold G5 A5 I was heading towards the West to find the sand G5 F5 But I guess I'll have to settle for the snow 2. C5 And I am just a stranger to this town F5 C5 I'm lonely and I'm restless and I'm stuck G5 A5 I wish I knew a way to get back down G5 F5 And I wish I had a shovel in this truck 3. C5 And the state police won't let me on the street F5 C5 I told 'em my story, but they don't care G5 A5 There's an old dog just lying at the feet G5 F5 Of a girl who once wore flowers in her hair 4. C5 And my heart lies fifty miles ahead F5 C5 Underneath a bridge just out of sight G5 A5 she sits beneath the covers of a bed G5 F5 Where she waits for me to meet her in the night 5. C5 And this old town was named after a rose F5 C5 That blooms along the hillside in the cold ground G5 A5 But my heart has been broken and is closed G5 F5 Like the freeway that would take me out of town 6. C5 And just because I don't got no regrets F5 C5 Yeah well that don't mean I didn't get it wrong G5 A5 My love is like a homemade summer dress G5 F5 I am just a lonely winter song 7. C5 And I dust off the snowflakes from the hood F5 C5 And I talk to an old friend on the phone G5 A5 She says, "I think that the calm could do you good G5 F5 You have been traveling so long" 8. C5 So Happy New Years babe, I guess this is goodbye F5 C5 And I hope that you find someone you can hold G5 A5 And if you hear that midnight whistle cry G5 F5 Please think of me in Santa Rosa in the snow C5 F5 C5 G5 A5 G5 F5
