WINTERWOOD    (Listen to sample)

 

     G

1. No one can take your place with me,

                                                    D

    and time has proven that I'm right,

                                                                                              G   

    there's no place I'd rather be, than at your place for the night.

 

    G                                                                                                    

2.     No time can pass your sight unseen,

                                                 D

    no moment steals away unfound,

                                                                                                    G

    a lifetime lived in such a dream, floats like a feather to the ground.

 

C                     B7                         Em

    And for the first time I've been seeing,

           Am                     G      ~        D

    the things I'd never notice  -  without you.

C                    B7                     Em

    And for the first time I'm discovering,

             C                       G           ~    D           - G ~

    the things I used to treasure  -   about you.

 

   G

3.    The birds like leaves on Winterwood,

                                                       D

     sing hopeful songs on dismal days,

 

     they've learned to live life as they should,

                                                         G

    they are at peace with Nature's ways.

 

  G                                                                                                       D

4. You are as natural as the night, and all that springs from you is good,

 

    and the children born beneath your light,

                                                  G                             + G

    are like the birds on Winterwood.     + CHORUS
