[Intro]

F7sus4 Bb/F F
[Verse 1]
F C/E Dm Bb
The lamp is burning low upon my table top
F C/E F
The snow is softly falling
F C/E Dm Bb
The air is still in the silence of my room
F C/E F
I hear your voice softly calling
[Chorus 1]
F C/E Gm C
If I could only have you near
Am Dm Bb C
To breathe a sigh or two
F C/E Dm Bb
I would be happy just to hold the hands I love
F C/E F7sus4 Bb/F F
On this winter's night with you
F7sus4 Bb/F F
[Verse 2]
F C/E Dm Bb
The smoke is rising in the shadows overhead
F C/E F
My glass is almost empty
F C/E Dm Bb
I read again between the lines upon each page
F C/E F
The words of love you sent me
[Chorus 2]
F C/E Gm C
If I could know within my heart
Am Dm Bb C
That you were lonely too
F C/E Dm Bb
I would be happy just to hold the hands I love
F C/E F7sus4 Bb/F F
On this winter's night with you
F7sus4 Bb/F F
[Verse 3]
F C/E Dm Bb
The fire is dying now, my lamp is growing dim
F C/E F
The shades of night are lifting
F C/E Dm Bb
The morning light steals across my windowpane
F C/E F
Where webs of snow are drifting
[Chorus 3]
F C/E Gm C
If I could only have you near
Am Dm Bb C
To breathe a sigh or two
F C/E Dm Bb
I would be happy just to hold the hands I love
F C/E A Dm Dm/C
On this winter's night with you
Bb C F7sus4 Bb/F F
And to be once again with you
[Outro]
