Mclachlan Sarah - Song For A Winters Night guitar tab

m: Terence_CHUA@AGC.gov.sg

I've loved Sarah's version since I first heard it on "B-Sides", and here is

my humble effort at transcribing it. These are the actual chords used in

the recording - someone else more proficient will have to come up with the

tabs. I can't really barre B very well, so I use G - D - C and so on

instead, and while I can't play along with Sarah on the CD, it's good

enough to sing along to.

(change your settings to a monospace font so you can get the chord cues right)

Song For A Winter's Night

Music and Lyrics by Gordon Lightfoot

As performed by Sarah McLachlan on "B-Sides, Rarities and Other Stuff"

1st verse:

F C B

The lamp is burning low upon my table top

F C F

The snow is softly falling

F C B

The air is still within the silence of my room

F C B

I hear your voice softly calling

1st bridge:

F C B C

If I could only have you near

Am Cm B C

To breathe a sigh or two

Chorus:

F C B

I would be happy just to hold the hands I love

F C F

On this winter's night with you

2nd verse:

The smoke is rising in the shadows overhead

My glass is almost empty

I read again between the lines upon each page

The words of love you send me

2nd bridge:

If I could know within my heart

That you were lonely too

Chorus:

I would be happy just to hold the hands I love

On this winter's night with you

3rd verse:

The fire is dying now my lamp is getting dim

The shades of night are lifting

The morning light steals across my windowpane

Where webs of snow are drifting

3rd bridge:

F C B C

If I could only have you near

Am Cm B C

To breathe a sigh or two

Last Chorus:

F C B

I would be happy just to hold the hands I love

F C Am C

On this winter's night with you

F C F

And to be once again with you

That's all folks... enjoy! :-)
