[C#m]
Before [E] I leave, let me [F#] tell you what [C#m] I'm doing.
I'll try to speak in [C#] such a way [A] that you won't be afraid [G#] of listening.
[C#m] Too many words been spoke [B] without no [E] understanding, and [F#m] I'd hate to [A] add another wound to [B] the times we had good [C#m] loving.
[A] But oh, when I think of [E] the tall pine trees growing, [A] the silver mists [G#m] of snow [F#m] all around me [C#m] blowing,
I'll miss [F#m] the gentle times and the fireplace [E] a-warming.
[F#m] Perhaps I'll turn my head [E] away, [B] and hide the tears [C#m] a-falling.
Some say I have [E]
dishonored you [F#] through foolishness [C#m] and folly.
The question's not [C#] in where that lies, [A] but if you're standing [G#] by me.
[C#m] I do not need to hear the words to [B] know your truthful [E]
answer.
[F#m] Your eyes that once were [A] home to me now [B] tell me I'm [C#m] a stranger.
[A] But oh, when I think [E] of the tall pine trees growing, [A] the silver mists [G#m] of snow [F#m] all around [C#m] me blowing,
I'll miss [F#m] the gentle times and the fireplace [E] a-warming.
[F#m] Perhaps I'll turn [A] my head away, [B] and hide the tears [C#m] a -falling.
And I'm bound to be [E] a wanderer, [F#] I'll never [C#m] take another.
I'll catch a merchant [C#] ship tonight [A] and sail through [G#] foreign waters.
[C#m] I'll judge no man for what he's done, [B] and no man will [E] I bother.
[F#m] Then I hope to find [A] some peace again, [B] and cleanse my [C#m] soul of anger.
[A] But oh, when I think [E] of the tall pine trees growing, [A] the silver mists [G#m] of snow [F#m]
all around [C#m] me blowing,
I'll miss [F#m] the gentle times and the fireplace [E] a-warming.
