Capo 5th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Been snowin all day when I got home

The fire was out the cabin was cold

And I poured some stale coffee from the pot

The longer I waited the snow got higher

So I split some wood and built a fire

If she told me she’d be gone I forgot

I’d seen it snow that hard before

I couldn’t see the cabin from the stable door

And that mare she always rode was in the stall

The law couldn’t come till the weather broke

My heart was poundin in my throat

And I searched and called her name till it was raw

I never should have brought her here

Livin’s rough this time of year

Tryin to keep food and fire till winters done

Sometimes she gazed across the plains

With a look that I couldn’t name

And I’d wonder if she stay till springtime comes

Enjoy!!
