Tuning - Standard. EADGBE

The song is originally played on a Mandolin, but it sounds pretty beautiful on guitar as well.


Winter Winds
________________________________________________

       G      D            Em                 C   
As the winter winds litter London with lonely hearts

       G              D             Em        C
Oh the warmth in your eyes swept me into your arms

       G                  D              Em             C
Was it love or fear of the cold that led us through the night?

    G     D         Em                C
For every kiss your beauty trumped my doubt


       C         G
And my head told my heart

C    Em   D
"Let love grow"

      C           G
But my heart told my head

C     Em   D
"This time no

D              G C G
This time no"

         G          D          Em     C
We'll be washed and buried one day my girl

        G            D             Em           C 
And the time we were given will be left for the world

    G                    D             Em         C 
The flesh that lived and loved will be eaten by a plague

   G            D       Em                C
So let the memo-ries be good for those who stay

      C          G
And my head told my heart

C    Em   D 
"Let love grow"

      C           G
But my heart told my head

C     Em   D
"This time no"

       C           G
Yes, my heart told my head

C     Em   D  
"This time no

D               G C G
This time no"

       G                  D            Em              C
Oh the shame that sent me off from the God that I once loved

        G                 D         Em      C            
Was the same that sent me into your arms

       G             D                Em            C 
Oh and pestilence is won when you are lost and I am gone

       G        D             Em       C 
And no hope, no hope will over-come

    G       D              Em      C 
And if your strife strikes at your sleep

   G      D            Em       C
Re-member spring swaps snow for leaves

G         D         Em        C
You'll be happy and wholesome again

         G    D          Em  C   
When the city clears and sun ascends


       C         G
And my head told my heart

C    Em   D 
"Let love grow"

       C          G
But my heart told my head

C     Em   D
"This time no"

      C          G 
And my head told my heart

C    Em   D 
"Let love grow"

      C           G
But my heart told my head

C     Em   D
"This time no

D
This time no"


C
Woah....

G
Oh...
