F C F Bb - F C F Bb F

    F          C F    Bb
The nights are colder now,
Am                       Bb
Maybe I should close the door,
Bb             F        Gm               Dm7
And anyway the snow has covered all your footsteps,
    Bb                  C          C7
And I can follow you no more.
    F          C     F  Bb
The fire still burns at night,
   Am                    Bb
My memories are warm and clear,
Bb            F           Gm           Bb           C       F (Bb F)
But everybody knows: It's hard to be a-lone at this time of year.

Chorus:
       F               C7    F                     Bb
It was only a winter's tale, Just another winter's tale.
    F                         Gm         F                    C
And why should the world take notice, of one more love that's failed.
  F                     C7            F                      Bb
A love that could never be, though it meant a lot to you and me.
     F                       C                     F    (Bb F)
On a world-wide scale, we're just another winter's tale.

F       C     F Bb
While I stand a-lone,
  Am                    Bb
A bell is ringing far a-way,
  Bb            F       Gm               Dm7
I wonder if you hear, I wonder if you're listening,
  Bb                      C   (C7)
I wonder where you are to-day.
     F       C    F   Bb
Good luck, I wish you well,
    Am                     Bb
For all that wishes may be worth,
Bb                   F
I hope that love and strength, 
    Gm.              Bb            C       F    (Bb F)
are with you for the length of you time on Earth
