Sarah McLachlan - Wintersong
I thought that since it's getting near Christmas time it would be a good time to post
song. Merry Christmas and enjoy!
*When Sarah plays this song on the piano, she usually hits each chord in the verse about
times. However, on Bm's, she usually hits that 3 times and then changes to a D before
to the next chord, so it looks like this: (Bm)(Bm)(Bm)(D). I've indicated where this
with an asterisk *. You can decide whether you like better playing with or without this.
Intro:
*
The lake is frozen over
*
The trees are white with snow
And all around reminders of you
*
Are everywhere I go
Ooooh...
Ooooh...
It’s late and morning’s in no hurry
*
But sleep won’t set me free
I lie awake and try to recall
How your body felt beside me
When silence gets too hard to handle
And the night too long
And this is how I see you
In the snow on Christmas morning
Love and happiness surround you
As you throw your arms up to the sky
I keep this moment by and by
Oh how I miss you now, my love
Merry Christmas, merry Christmas,
Merry Christmas, my love
Sense of joy fills the air
*
And I daydream and I stare
Up at the tree and I see
Your star up there
And this is how I see you
In the snow on Christmas morning
Love and happiness surround you
As you throw your arms up to the sky
I keep this moment by and by
