Out Of The Snow

Tom : C

[Intro]
  C  F  C   G   C   F   C   G   C
VERSE:
C F C
Go away, go away, you cold north wind
C G C
Blowin' my muffler 'round and 'round
C F C G C
Your white powder blows coverin' up the icy ground
C F C
I'm a slippin' and a slidin' down this dead end stream
C G C
Like a sheep who is lost from the fold
C F C
I've been on the land and I've been on the sea
C G C
I ain't never seen a night so cold
C F C
Suddenly a face at the window
C G C
Looks like someone I might a seen before
C F C
Thought it musta been my imagination
C G C
When suddenly she opened up the door
CHORUS:
F Bb F
"And I never expected to see you again
F Bb F
Must a been seven years ago
F Bb F
Now that you're here, why don't you come in
G C
Don't stand outside in the snow"
INSTRUMENTAL:
  C  F  C   G   C   F   C   G   C
VERSE:
C F C
She sat me down in that old rockin' chair
C G C
And she threw on another lump of coal
C F C
Said "what's a southern boy like you, doin' here
C G C
Where the winter gets so long and cold"
C F C
"My history's a short one to tell
C G C
I've been travelin' all these seven years
C F C
I followed the music and the money around
C G C
And that's what I'm doin' up here"
INSTRUMENTAL:
  F  Bb  F   Bb   F  Bb   F    G   C
VERSE:
C F C
She said "I came up with my husband
C G C
He wanted to get away from Tennessee
C F C
He's up somewhere in the Rocky Mountains
C G C
But it just got to cold up there for me
CHORUS:
F Bb F
And I never expected to see you again
F Bb F
Then again, you just never know
F Bb F
You better stay here until the weather clears
G C
It's just too cold to be out there in the snow"
