DON MCLEAN - Winter Has Me In Its Grip guitar tab

Subject: crd:winter has me in it's grip - don mclean

I only know this song from the SOLO-album. But it comes from the album

Homeless (1974).

The song starts with flageolets on

the twelfth and seventh fret. I'd guess the song is easy to play

when you heard it on the record. The musical intermezzo are

just the chords in the refrain until the Em. But i guess you'll

find that out. Just before he plays Winter has me etc. there's a

little solo which is played this way:

----------------3---3---2-----

---------------0-0-0---3------

-------0------0---0---2-------

--0-0h2---------------------

---------------------2--------

-----------3------------------

winter has me etc.

In fact i have to admit this song is worked out by an old

schoolfriend: henny fonville. I haven't seen him for more than 10

years, but maybe some day he finds his way to OLGA too.

Well good luck playing it,

Winter has me in it's grip

think i'll take a summer trip

Am D7

where the shells lie in the sand

musical intermezzo

G D(B-bass)

I feel so lonely

Am D7

I'm to young to feel this old

G D(B-bass)

I need you and you only

Am D7

when the weather gets this cold

Winter has me in it's etc.

There's no use in going

cause it's cold inside my heart

and it's always snowing

since the day we broke apart

Winter has me in it's etc.

I tried to run from winter

like this spring and summer run to fall

But when the weather 's in you

ther's no hiding place at all, thats why

Winter has me in it's grip etc.
