These are the actual chords used in the recording - someone else more proficient will have to come up with the tabs. I can't really barre B very well, so I use G - D - C and so on instead, and while I can't play along with Sarah on the CD, it's good enough to sing along to. (change your settings to a monospace font so you can get the chord cues right) Song For A Winter's Night Music and Lyrics by Gordon Lightfoot As performed by Sarah McLachlan on "B-Sides, Rarities and Other Stuff" 1st verse: F C B The lamp is burning low upon my table top F C F The snow is softly falling F C B The air is still within the silence of my room F C B I hear your voice softly calling 1st bridge: F C B C If I could only have you near Am Cm B C To breathe a sigh or two Chorus: F C B I would be happy just to hold the hands I love F C F On this winter's night with you 2nd verse: The smoke is rising in the shadows overhead My glass is almost empty I read again between the lines upon each page The words of love you send me 2nd bridge: If I could know within my heart That you were lonely too Chorus: I would be happy just to hold the hands I love On this winter's night with you 3rd verse: The fire is dying now my lamp is getting dim The shades of night are lifting The morning light steals across my windowpane Where webs of snow are drifting 3rd bridge: F C B C If I could only have you near Am Cm B C To breathe a sigh or two Last Chorus: F C B I would be happy just to hold the hands I love F C Am C On this winter's night with you F C F And to be once again with you That's all folks... enjoy! :-) ---------- Terence Chua WWW: KhaOS@TinyTIM: "Love ain't a dying art as far as I can see..."
