INTRO:
A E D (2x)
VERSE #1:
A E
Now the sun was in my eyes
D
So forgive me if I was blind
A E
But I can suddenly see the light
D
Now the blinds are raised
A E
Now she's finally spoken
D
Winter's finally broken
A E
Realize I'm heading
D
For colder days
BRIDGE #1:
Bm E
He can feel it just around the corner
Bm E
He can feel it on every breath
Bm E
And something tells him it's good goodbye summer
Bm E
And something tells him it's the kiss of death
CHORUS:
A
Losing at the tracks
(I smell)
E
Loosens all his taps
(Winter)
D
I smell winter on his breath
A
There's a chill down my spine
(I smell)
E
But the weather's fine
(Winter)
D
I smell winter on his breath
A E D (1x)
VERSE #2:
A E
You better button up your coat
D
Or it will catch you in the pit of the throat
A E
You can certainly feel the wind blow
D
When you're by yourself
A E
And when the snow has finally melted
D
You better think about who you shelter
A
'Cos one of these days
E D
It might just be someone else
BRIDGE #2:
Bm E
And he's searched underground and overground for a partner
Bm E
Played his harmonica 'til his lips were raw
Bm E
He's looked through tins and rubbish bins just for an answer
Bm E
So far each year he's drawn the shortest straw
CHORUS:
A
Losing at the tracks
(I smell)
E
Loosens all his taps
(Winter)
D
I smell winter on his breath
A
There's a chill down my spine
(I smell)
E
But the weather's fine
(Winter)
D
I smell winter on his breath
A E D
I smell winter
A E D
I smell winter
A E D
I smell winter
A E D
I smell winter
BRIDGE #3: (Same as #2, but played with muted strings)
Bm E
And he's searched underground and overground for a partner
Bm E
Played his harmonica 'til his lips were raw
Bm E
He's looked through tins and rubbish bins just for an answer
Bm E
So far each year he's drawn the shortest straw
CHORUS:
A
Losing at the tracks
(I smell)
E
Loosens all his taps
(Winter)
D
I smell winter on his breath
A
There's a chill down my spine
(I smell)
E
But the weather's fine
(Winter)
D
I smell winter on his breath
A E D
I smell winter
A E D
I smell winter
A E D
I smell winter
