When the Cold Weather Comes Lyrics

CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO: C G C F C G F C (2x)
When the cold weather comes and the earth begins to freeze
With a pale yellow glow and stubble in the fields
A lonely scarecrow watching with nothing left to do
But wait when the cold weather comes
Then comes the falling snow that will settle in to stay
Then the wind blows it around but won't blow it away
Beneath the frosty blanket in the midwinter bleak
Fast asleep when the cold weather comes
INTERLUDE: C G C F C G F C
When the cold weather comes, this town will grow quiet
Then the whisper of the wind will push a hole through the silence
Then we'll gather in the kitchen, play the tunes a little longer
The wood burns hotter when the cold weather comes
CHORUS:
'Cause there's time to think about the seasons come and gone
And the one that lies ahead that will spring up from the ground
You may have a chance to get some rest
You might even catch your breath
N.C. C
When the cold weather comes
INTERLUDE: C G C F C G F C F C G C F C G C
We'll know when it's right, we'll know it's the time
When we feel like we're missing the world going by
When cabin fever swells, there's a way to break free
And time to leave when the cold weather comes
We'll enter the doors to the pubs of the towns
Where it's better to be early, ahead of the crowd
And all those girls stand in line with barely nothing on
They're the toughest ones, when the cold weather comes
CHORUS:
So raise your glass to the seasons come and gone
And the one that lies ahead that will spring up from the ground
You may have a chance to get some rest
You might even catch your breath
N.C. C
When the cold weather comes
