Disclaimer: Like all my favorite Seattle bands (and many more
from around the globe), this singer can be darned unintelligible,
so if I got some of the words wrong I'll apologize in advance (if
I did get them right, this song's got some pretty weird lyrics).
If anyone has any corrections to the words (or the music for that
submit the song to the archive. Thanks in advance for any help.
Good playing,

WINTER SONG, The Screaming Trees
VERSE 1
Jesus knockin' on my door
late last night and early this morning
window glass, rusted and weary,
I went straight thru, didn't hear no warning
PRECHORUS
Just a roll of the dice and a precious fight
Bring you around, its easier
When I'm wastin' my time and when I'm losin' my mind,
oh my mind
CHORUS
Try to wait for the sky to fall
It's gone now see it all
Whisper some winter in your heart, yea yea yeah
INTERLUDE (SOLO)
(repeat 4x)
VERSE 2
Dead end street, just out my back door
I heard once seen a young girl laughin'
Now rain drops fall, away like souls
I wonder if she ever heard mine dyin'
REPEAT PRECHORUS
REPEAT CHORUS TWICE
END
Jesus knockin' on my door, one last time early this mornin'.
