Winter When He Goes Tracy Grammer
CAPO: 1st Fret
INTRO: G D
N.C. G
As the sun is to the city
In the [Gmaj7]endless weeping winter
So is [C]joy to me, and pity
When he [Em]leaves me falsely [D]tender
Like the [G]true love's knot we tethered
Plastic [Gmaj7]ivy 'round the portal
For to [C]frame the spring forever
Though the [Em]blizzard took the [D]mortal holy [C]rose
[D]It's always winter when he [G]goes[D]
As a [G]matter of convenience
We don't [Gmaj7]speak of dying gardens
As a [C]woman of heart and lenience
I make [Em]liberal with my [D]pardons
I am [G]generous with kindness
He with [Gmaj7]smiles and exaltations
Though he [C]binds his wounds in silence
I my [Em]own in practiced [D]patience lest he [C]know
[D]It's always winter when he [C]goes
[D]It's always winter when he [G]goes
[Em]He col[C]lects the twigs and [Bm]briars
I [C]stack them [D]up for [Em]fire
But it's [D]chilly for the [C]burning
And [Em]he really [C]slumbers in the [Bm]straw
I [C]hold out [D]for the [Em]thaw
For the [D]seasons won't be [C]turning
As I'm [G]writing you this letter
The [Gmaj7]bluestem's running riot
And [C]daisies break their fetters
And the [Em]bees will not lay [D]quiet
If you [G]find him where he's dancing
With his [Gmaj7]lover or his jailer
Say in [C]April's splendid mansion
I lay [Em]broken by his [D]trailer in the [C]snow
[D]It's always winter when he [C]goes
[D]It's always winter when he [C]goes
[D]It's always winter when he [G]goes [D] [C]
