1. Verse: A E A E When the rain came I thought youd leave A E cause I knew how much you loved the sun A E But you chose to stay, stay and keep me warm A E Through the darkest nights Ive ever known B A If the mandolin wind couldnt change a thing A E A E Then I know I love ya 2. Verse: A E A E Oh the snow fell without a break A E Buffalo died in the frozen fields you know A E Through the coldest winter in almost fourteen years A E I couldnt believe you kept a smile B A Now I can rest assured knowing that weve seen the worst A E A E And I know I love ya 3. Verse: A E A E Oh I never was good with romantic words A E So the next few lines come really hard A E Dont have much but what Ive got is yours A E Except of course my steel guitar B Ha, cause I know you dont play A But Ill teach you one day A E Because I love ya
