Chords for Lindisfarne - Winter Song (Live 1984)

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [B] _
When _ _ _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [B] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ winter's shadowy fingers _ [C#m] first pursue you down the [E] street
_ [A] And your boots no longer [A] lie above [F#m] the cold around your feet _
_ [D] Do you spare a thought [F#m] for summer [C#] whose [B] passage is complete _ _
_ _ [E] Whose memories lie [D] in ruins [Em] and [C#m] whose ruins [C#m] lie in heat
[Am] Oh, and winter _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [B] _
_ comes _ _ _ [E] howling
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [A] _ [E] _ _ When the wind is singing _ [D#] strangely, _ [C#m] blowing music through [E] your hair
_ And [A] your rain splattered windows _ make you [F#m] decide to stay [Em] in bed
Do [D] you spare a thought [F#m] for the homeless tramp who [B] wishes he was dead
_ _ Or do [E] you pull your bedclothes [G] up higher, _ [C#m] dream of summertime instead
_ _ [Am] Oh, and winter _ _ comes _ _ _
_ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _ _
_ howling
[E] _ And _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ the creeping cold has fingers [C#m] that caress without your [E] permission
_ And [A] mystic crystal _ _ snowdrops [F#m] only _ aggravate the [Em] condition
_ [B] Do [D] you spare a thought [C#] for the gypsy [F#m] _ [B] with no secure position _
_ _ _ [E] Who's turned and sprang by a village in [Em] town at [C#m] the magistrate's decision
_ [B] Oh, [Am] and winter _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [B] _ _ comes _ _ _ [E] howling _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [B] _ [C#m] _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ When _ [E] _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _
the turkey's in the oven, _ [C#m] all your Christmas presents [E] are born _
_ [A] And Santa's in his module, _ he's an [F#m] American _ astronaut
[A]
Do [D] you spare one thought [C#] for Jesus, who [B] had nothing but his thoughts _ _
He [E] got busted _ just for talking _ [C#m] and befriending the wrong sorts
_ [B] Oh, [Am] and winter _ _ comes _ _ _ _ _ _ [B] _
_ _ [E] _ [C#m] _ [E] howling _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _ [N] _
