[Verse]
C Em Am Fmaj7
Oh the bitter winds are coming in,
C Em Am Fmaj7
And Im already missing the summer.
C Em Am Fmaj7
Stockholms cold but Ive been told
C Em Am Fmaj7
I was born to endure this kind of weather.
C Em Am Fmaj7
When its you I find like a ghost in my mind,
C Em G
Im defeated and I gladly wear the crown.
[Chorus]
C Fmaj7
I'll be your Emmylou and I'll be your June
Am G
And youll be my Graham and my Johnny too.
C Fmaj7
No, Im not asking much of you
Am G C
Just sing little darling, sing with me.
[Verse]
C Em Am Fmaj7
So much I know, that things just dont grow
C Em Am Fmaj7
If you dont bless them with your patience.
C Em Am Fmaj7
And Ive been there before, I held up the door
C Em Am Fmaj7
For every stranger with a promise.
C Em Am Fmaj7
But Im holding back,
C Em Am Fmaj7
That’s the strength that I lack,
C Em Am Fmaj7
Every morning keeps returning at my window.
C Em Am Fmaj7
And it brings me to you,
C Em Am Fmaj7
And I won't just pass through,
C Em Am Fmaj7
But Im not asking for a storm.
[Chorus]
C Fmaj7
I'll be your Emmylou and I'll be your June
Am G
And youll be my Graham and my Johnny too.
C Fmaj7
No, Im not asking much of you
Am G C
Just sing little darling, sing with me.
[Bridge]
Am G Fmaj7 C
And yes, I might have lied to you,
Am G Fmaj7 C
You wouldnt benefit from knowing the truth.
Am G Fmaj7 C
I was frightened but I held fast,
Am G Fmaj7 C
I need you now at long last.
[Chorus]
C Fmaj7
I'll be your Emmylou and I'll be your June
Am G
And youll be my Graham and my Johnny too.
C Fmaj7
No, Im not asking much of you
Am G C
Just sing little darling, sing with me.
C Fmaj7
I'll be your Emmylou and I'll be your June
Am G
And youll be my Graham and my Johnny too.
C Fmaj7
No, Im not asking much of you
Am G C
Just sing little darling, sing with me.
[Outro]
Am G C
Just sing little darling sing with me
