I Smell Winter(Chords)

	        
Intro: 

A E D (2x) 

VERSE #1: 

A                     E 
Now the sun was in my eyes 
   D 
So forgive me if I was blind 
          A                E 
But I can suddenly see the light 
                   D 
Now the blinds are raised 

A                 E 
Now she's finally spoken 
D 
Winter's finally broken 
A           E 
Realize I'm heading 
           D 
For colder days 

BRIDGE #1: 

       Bm                      E 
He can feel it just around the corner 
       Bm               E 
He can feel it on every breath 
              Bm                          E 
And something tells him it's good goodbye summer 
              Bm                         E 
And something tells him it's the kiss of death 

A 
Losing at the tracks 
  (I smell) 
E 
Loosens all his taps 
  (Winter) 
D 
I smell winter on his breath 
A 
There's a chill down my spine 
  (I smell) 
E 
But the weather's fine 
  (Winter) 
D 
I smell winter on his breath 


A E D (1x) 

VERSE #2: 

           A              E 
You better button up your coat 
           D 
Or it will catch you in the pit of the throat 
        A                       E 
You can certainly feel the wind blow 
               D 
When you're by yourself 
             A                E 
And when the snow has finally melted 
           D 
You better think about who you shelter 
     A 
'Cos one of these days 
   E                     D 
It might just be someone else 

BRIDGE #2: 

                  Bm                               E 
And he's searched underground and overground for a partner 
           Bm                           E 
Played his harmonica 'til his lips were raw 
                    Bm                                E 
He's looked through tins and rubbish bins just for an answer 
            Bm                           E 
So far each year he's drawn the shortest straw 

A 
Losing at the tracks 
  (I smell) 
E 
Loosens all his taps 
  (Winter) 
D 
I smell winter on his breath 
A 
There's a chill down my spine 
  (I smell) 
E 
But the weather's fine 
  (Winter) 
D 
I smell winter on his breath 

A E        D 
I    smell winter 
A E        D 
I    smell winter 
A E        D 
I    smell winter 
A E        D 
I    smell winter 


BRIDGE #3: (Same as #2, but played with muted strings) 

                  Bm                               E 
And he's searched underground and overground for a partner 
           Bm                           E 
Played his harmonica 'til his lips were raw 
                    Bm                                E 
He's looked through tins and rubbish bins just for an answer 
            Bm                           E 
So far each year he's drawn the shortest straw 

A 
Losing at the tracks 
  (I smell) 
E 
Loosens all his taps 
  (Winter) 
D 
I smell winter on his breath 
A 
There's a chill down my spine 
  (I smell) 
E 
But the weather's fine 
  (Winter) 
D 
I smell winter on his breath 

A E        D 
I    smell winter 
A E        D 
I    smell winter 
A E        D 
I    smell winter
