Dm Dsus4 Dm Dsus2 Dm Dsus4 Dm Dsus2

(Intro)

Dm Dsus4 Dm Dsus2

Golden rings and hair tied with ribbon

Dm Dsus4 Dm Dsus2

Early spring when winter's forgiven

Bb

Laughing past pleasures warm by the fire

Dm Dsus4 Dm Dsus2

Come inside

Dm Dsus4 Dm Dsus2

Silver vase, take a drink flower petal

Dm Dsus4 Dm Dsus2

Whistling songs like steam from the kettle

Bb

Carry silence like driftwood that rides

Dm Dsus4 Dm Dsus2

On the tide, on the tide, on the tide

Am G F

Tall treasures, large as Alaska

G Am

There forever, never put out to pasture

Am

Then the night will fall

Am

Bringing peace to all

Am Dm Dsus4 Dm Dsus2

Darkness there together

Dm Dsus4 Dm Dsus2

Soft light bells and tea, draw the curtain

Dm Dsus4 Dm Dsus2

China cups, some shatter for certain

Bb

Laughin past pleasures warm by the fire

Dm Dsus4 Dm Dsus2

Come inside

Bb Am Dm Em Am Gm Dm

Am G F

Tall treasures, large as Alaska

G Am

There forever, never put out to pasture

Am G F

Red river runs here beside us

G Am

Grey morning will never divide us

Am

Then the night will fall

Am

Bringing peace to all

Am Dm Dsus4 Dm Dsus2

Darkness there together

(repeat and fade)
