[Intro 1]
[D][G][A][D][G][A][D][G][A][D][G][A]

[Verse 1]
[D]On
a win[G]ter's [A]Sunday I [D]go[G]
[D]To [G]clear [A]away [D]the snow[G]
And green the [A]ground below
[D][G][A]

[Verse 2]
[D]April [G]all an [D]oce[G]an awa[A]y[D][G]
Is this a better [A]way to spend
[D]the day?[G]
Keeping the win[A]ter at bay
[D][G][A]

[Verse 3]
[G]
What were the [A]words I meant to [D]say
Before you [G]left
When [Bm]I could see your br[G]eath lead
Where you were go[A]ing to

[Verse 4]
[D]Maybe I [G]should just [A]let it [D]be
And [G]maybe it [A]will all come back [D]to me
Seeing, [G]oh, [A]January, oh

[Interlude 1]
[D][G][A][D][G][A]

[Verse 5]
[D]How I lived a [G]childhood [A]in the[D] snow
And [G]all my [A]teens in [D]tow
[G]Stuffed in [A]strata [D]of [G]clothes[A]

[Verse 6]
[D]Hail the [G]winter days [A]af ter [D]dark
[G]Wandering [A]the gray memorial [D]park
[G]A fleeting [A]beating of hearts
[D][G][A]

[Verse 7]
[G]
What were the [A]words I meant to [D]say
Before she [G]left
When [Bm]I could see her bre[G]ath lead
Where she was go[A]ing to

[Verse 8]
[D]Maybe I should [G]just [A]let it [D]be
And [G]maybe it [A]will all come back [D]to me
Seeing, [G]oh, [A]Jan[G]u...
Oh, [A]January,
[D]oh[G][A][D][G][A][D][G][A]
[D][G][A]
