D A And it sure been a cold, cold winter D A and the wind ain`t been blowin` from the south. D A It`s sure been a cold, cold winter D A and a lotta love is all burned out.
D A It sure been a hard, hard winter, D A my feet been draggin` `cross the ground. D A And I hope it`s gonna be a long, hot summer, E D E and a lotta love will be burnin` bright.
D E And I wish I been out in California D E when the lights on all the Christmas trees went out. D E But I been burnin` my bell, book and candle, D E and the restoration plays have all gone `round.
D A It sure been a cold, cold winter, D A my feet been draggin` `cross the ground. D A And the fields has all been brown and fallow, E D E and the springtime take a long way around.
D E Yeah, and I wish I been out in Stone Canyon D E when the lights on all the Christmas trees went out. D E But I been burnin` my bell, book and candle, D E and the restoration plays have all gone `round.
Alternate between D and A chords for the rest of the song
Sometimes I think about you, baby, Sometimes I cry about you. Sometimes I wanna wrap my coat around you, Sometimes I wanna keep you warm. Sometimes I wanna wrap my coat around you, Sometimes I wanna but I can`t afford you.
