Chord diagramG+G                        Chord diagramC majorC                     Chord diagramG+G

Verse 1:
Chord diagramG+G                        Chord diagramC majorC                     Chord diagramG+G
February sixty three the cold would chill your bones
Chord diagramG+G                                                          Chord diagramD MajorD
There's a couple walking down the road West 4th Street and Jones
Chord diagramG+G
Shoulders hunched against the cold
Chord diagramG+G    Chord diagramC majorC                      Chord diagramE minorEm
They walked through melting snow
Chord diagramG+G
She smiles for the camera
Chord diagramG+G      Chord diagramD MajorD               Chord diagramG+G
And he affected not to know

Verse 2:

Chord diagramG+G                              Chord diagramC majorC                     Chord diagramG+G
His hands deep in his pockets, his head was slightly bowed
Chord diagramG+G                                              Chord diagramD MajorD
All the studied nonchalance, the weather would allow
Chord diagramG+G
Her arms wrapped around him like a shawl
Chord diagramG+G  Chord diagramC majorC                 Chord diagramE minorEm
To keep him from the cold
Chord diagramG+G
Love so warm can melt away
Chord diagramG+G    Chord diagramD MajorD               Chord diagramG+G
What once she had to hold

Verse 3:

Chord diagramG+G                                Chord diagramC majorC               Chord diagramG+G
Spring came late in sixty three and faded like a kiss
Chord diagramG+G                                   Chord diagramD MajorD
Winter came in early, landed like a fist
Chord diagramG+G
When Kennedy got shot
Chord diagramG+G       Chord diagramC majorC            Chord diagramE minorEm
In that Lincoln Limousine
Chord diagramG+G
Drenched us all in bl;ood and splintered bone

Chord diagramG+G      Chord diagramD MajorD        Chord diagramG+G
Right on our TV screen

Verse 4:

Chord diagramG+G                                    Chord diagramC majorC             Chord diagramG+G
When I kissed my girl on Gower Street how was I to know
Chord diagramG+G                                                    Chord diagramD MajorD
That we'd begun to drift apart as I stumbled through Soho
Chord diagramG+G
In the unforgiving neon light
Chord diagramG+G    Chord diagramC majorC                  Chord diagramE minorEm
The words she could not speak
Chord diagramG+G
Were written in her mascara
Chord diagramG+G      Chord diagramD MajorD           Chord diagramG+G
That dried upon my cheek

Verse 5:

Chord diagramG+G                                   Chord diagramC majorC                  Chord diagramG+G
But the world will keep on turning, young lovers drift apart
Chord diagramG+G                                                    Chord diagramD MajorD
Bob and Suzy's rhyming steps leave footprints on the heart
Chord diagramG+G
In the jingle jangle morning
Chord diagramG+G         Chord diagramC majorC    Chord diagramE minorEm
Dylan and Rottollo
Chord diagramG+G
In a freeze frame photograph
Chord diagramG+G         Chord diagramD MajorD    Chord diagramG+G
Eternally, tomorrow.
