Intro:
FF Bb majorBb
FF
I can hear the wheels of the automobiles
Bb majorBb C majorC FF Bb majorBb FF
So far away, just moving along through the drifting snow
FF
It's times like these when the temperatures freeze
Bb majorBb C majorC FF
I sit alone just looking at the world through a storm window
Bb majorBb FF
And down on the beach the sandman sleeps
Bb majorBb FF
Time don't fly it bounds and leaps
Bb majorBb FF
And a country band that plays for keeps
C majorC
They play it so slow
Chorus:
FF Bb majorBb C majorC
Don't let your baby down
FF Bb majorBb C majorC
Don't let your baby down
FF Bb majorBb C majorC
Don't let your baby down
FF
Well the spirits were high til the well went dry
Bb majorBb C majorC FF
For so long the raven at my window was only a crow
FF
I bought the rights to the inside fights
Bb majorBb C majorC FF
And watched a man just beating his hand against a storm window
Bb majorBb FF
While miles away o'er hills and streams
Bb majorBb FF
A augmentedA candle burns, And witch's dreams
Bb majorBb FF
And silence is golden till it screams
C majorC
Right through your bones
(Repeat Chorus)
C majorC Bb majorBb FF
Storm windows Gee but I'm getting old
C majorC G+G C majorC
Storm window keep away the cold
(Repeat Chorus)
