[Verse 1]
D
I need a change of scene 'til the seasons change
G
Maybe longer nights, maybe shorter days
Will get me over what I can't get past
If you're gone and you won't come back
D
Maybe a little space or a little time
G
Somewhere far from here will get you off my mind
I can't stay watching you move on all February long
[Pre-Chorus]
D
I'm going to Michigan for the winter
Between the dark and the light of the sky and the snow
G
Most people go south for the weather
Instead of hiding out in the cold, but
[Chorus 1]
D
Just in case you wanna change your mind
A
I'm lettin' you know where you can find me
G
46th Street, that first right turn
Down a dirt road watching that wood stove burn
D
I'm either waiting out your memory
A
Or for you don't wanna come back to me
G
Whichever comes first until it don't hurt no more
I'll be up North
D G
I'm going to Michigan for the winter
D G
I'm going to Michigan
[Verse 2]
D
This seven-hour long empty rear-view drive
G
Isn't what I want, but I guess it's time
To say goodbye to the way things were
I've finally come to terms, but
[Chorus 1]
D
Just in case you wanna change your mind
A
I'm lettin' you know where you can find me
G
46th Street, that first right turn
Down a dirt road watching that wood stove burn
D
I'm either waiting out your memory
A
Or for you don't wanna come back to me
G
Whichever comes first until it don't hurt no more
I'll be up North
D G
I'm going to Michigan for the winter
D G
Ooh, yeah
[Bridge]
D
I'm going to Michigan for the winter
'Tween the dark and the light of the sky and the snow
G
Most people go south for the weather
But I just wanna be alone
[Chorus 2]
D
Just in case you wanna change your mind
A
I'm lettin' you know where you can find me
G
46th Street, that first right turn
Down a dirt road watching that wood stove burn
D
While I'm waiting out your memory
A
Girl, the only place that I'm supposed to be
G
Is sittin' in a chair with a Bible or a beer
'Til my heart don't hurt no more
D G
I'm going to Michigan for the winter
D G
Yeah, I'm going to Michigan for the winter
