February sixty three the cold would chill your bones
G+G D MajorD
There's a couple walking down the road West 4th Street and Jones
G+G
Shoulders hunched against the cold
G+G C majorC E minorEm
They walked through melting snow
G+G
She smiles for the camera
G+G D MajorD G+G
And he affected not to know
Verse 2:
G+G C majorC G+G
His hands deep in his pockets, his head was slightly bowed
G+G D MajorD
All the studied nonchalance, the weather would allow
G+G
Her arms wrapped around him like a shawl
G+G C majorC E minorEm
To keep him from the cold
G+G
Love so warm can melt away
G+G D MajorD G+G
What once she had to hold
Verse 3:
G+G C majorC G+G
Spring came late in sixty three and faded like a kiss
G+G D MajorD
Winter came in early, landed like a fist
G+G
When Kennedy got shot
G+G C majorC E minorEm
In that Lincoln Limousine
G+G
Drenched us all in bl;ood and splintered bone
G+G D MajorD G+G
Right on our TV screen
Verse 4:
G+G C majorC G+G
When I kissed my girl on Gower Street how was I to know
G+G D MajorD
That we'd begun to drift apart as I stumbled through Soho
G+G
In the unforgiving neon light
G+G C majorC E minorEm
The words she could not speak
G+G
Were written in her mascara
G+G D MajorD G+G
That dried upon my cheek
Verse 5:
G+G C majorC G+G
But the world will keep on turning, young lovers drift apart
G+G D MajorD
Bob and Suzy's rhyming steps leave footprints on the heart
G+G
In the jingle jangle morning
G+G C majorC E minorEm
Dylan and Rottollo
G+G
In a freeze frame photograph
G+G D MajorD G+G
Eternally, tomorrow.
