1. Verse:

A        E

         A                        E
When the rain came I thought youd leave
        A                           E
cause I knew how much you loved the sun
        A                       E
But you chose to stay, stay and keep me warm
            A                       E
Through the darkest nights Ive ever known
       B                     A
If the mandolin wind couldnt change a thing
              A    E    A  E
Then I know I love ya


2. Verse:

A        E

       A                   E
Oh the snow fell without a break
A                          E
Buffalo died in the frozen fields you know
            A                        E
Through the coldest winter in almost fourteen years
  A                          E
I couldnt believe you kept a smile
          B                              A
Now I can rest assured knowing that weve seen the worst
             A    E    A  E
And I know I love ya


3. Verse:

A        E

     A                   E
Oh I never was good with romantic words
       A                          E
So the next few lines come really hard
A                           E
Dont have much but what Ive got is yours
A                         E
Except of course my steel guitar
            B
Ha, cause I know you dont play
        A
But Ill teach you one day
          A    E
Because I love ya

4. Verse:

A        E

A                               E
I recall the night we knelt and prayed
A                      E
Noticing your face was thin and pale
  A                        E
I found it hard to hide my tears
  A                      E
I felt ashamed I felt Id let you down
   B                     A
No mandolin wind couldnt change a thing
        A                  B          B           A
Couldnt change a thing no, no
