xSONG FOR A WINTER'S NIGHT:Gordon Lightfoot.
Top of the charts in 1964.
#1.
G D Em C
The lamp is burnin' low upon my table top,
G D G D
The snow is softly falling.
G D Em C
The air is still within the silence of my room,
G D G
I hear your voice softly calling.
#2.
D C D
If I could only have you near,
Bm Em Am D
To breathe a sigh or two,
G D Em C
I would be happy just to hold the hands I love..
G D G D
on this winter's night with you.
#3.
The smoke is rising in the shadows overhead,
My glass is almost empty.
I read again between the lines upon the page,
The words of love you sent me.
#4.
If I could know within my heart
That you were lonely too
I would be happy just to hold the hands I love
Upon this winter night with you.
#5.
The fire is dying now, my lamp is growing dim
The shades of night are lifting
The mornin' light steals across my windowpane
Where webs of snow are drifting.
#6.
If I could only have you near
To breathe a sigh or two
I would be happy just to hold the hands I love
G D B7
And to be once again with you.
G D G
and to be once again with with you.
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
