[/] [G] The lamp is [/] [D] burning low up [/] [Em] on my table [/] [C] top [/]
[/] [G] The snow is [/] [D] softly [/] [G] falling [/] [D] [/]
[/] [G] The air is [/] [D] still within the [/] [Em] silence of my [/] [C] room [/]
[/] [G] I hear your [/] [D] voice softly [/] [G] calling [/] [G]


{soc}
If [/] [G] I could [/] [D] only [/] [C] have you [/] [D] near [/]
[/] [Bm7] To breathe a [/] [Em] sigh or [/] [C] two [/] [D] [/]
[/] [G] I would be [/] [D] happy just to [/] [Em] hold the hands I [/] [C] love [/]
[/] [G] On this [/] [D] winter’s night with [/] [G] you [/] [D] [/]
{eoc}


[/] [G] The smoke is [/] [D] rising in the [/] [Em] shadows over- [/] [C] head [/]
[/] [G] My glass is [/] [D] almost [/] [G] empty [/] [D] [/]
[/] [G] I read a- [/] [D] gain between the [/] [Em] lines upon each [/] [C] page [/]
[/] [G] The words of [/] [D] love you [/] [G] send me [/] [G]


{soc}
If [/] [G] I could [/] [D] know with- [/] [C] in my [/] [D] heart [/]
[/] [Bm7] That you were [/] [Em] lonely [/] [C] too [/] [D] [/]
[/] [G] I would be [/] [D] happy just to [/] [Em] hold the hands I [/] [C] love [/]
[/] [G] On this [/] [D] winter’s night with [/] [G] you [/] [D] [/]
{eoc}


[/] [G] The fire is [/] [D] dying now my [/] [Em] lamp is getting [/] [C] dim [/]
[/] [G] The shades of [/] [D] night are [/] [G] lifting [/] [D] [/]
[/] [G] The morning [/] [D] light steals a- [/] [Em] cross my window [/] [C] pane [/]
[/] [G] Where webs of [/] [D] snow are [/] [G] drifting [/] [G]


{soc}
If [/] [G] I could [/] [D] only [/] [C] have you [/] [D] near [/]
[/] [Bm7] To breathe a [/] [Em] sigh or [/] [C] two [/] [D] [/]
[/] [G] I would be [/] [D] happy just to [/] [Em] hold the hands I [/] [C] love [/]
[/] [G] On this [/] [D] winter’s night with [/] [B7] you [/] [Em] [/]
[/] [C] And to be [/] [D] once again with [/] [G↓] you
